<h3>Chocolate chip Oatmeal Cookies Christian Light Home Ec</h3>

                            
 Hello! As an elective this year, I'm doing Christian Light Education's Home Ec course. I'm still in the beginning, but I'm enjoying it a lot.

  This week, I got to make chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, and I'm going to share the recipe here.

  To make them, you'll need:

• 2 c Brown sugar
• 1c margarine(I used butter)
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 c flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 3 c quick oats
• 12 oz (2 c) chocolate chips
• sifted powered sugar in a small mixing bowl
• 1/2 chopped walnuts (optional)

  This recipe makes approximately 4 dozen.

To make:  Cream brown sugar and butter. Add eggs and continue beating  until mixture is well mixed. Add vanilla.

Put flour, salt, powder, and soda, into a sifter. Sift about 1/3 of flour mixture into creamed mixture and beat until well blended. Add another 1/3 of mixture, beat well; then add final third and beat until mixture is blended. 

Clean sides of bowl often.

Fold in oatmeal, chocolate chips, and walnuts by hand. Roll in balls the size of a large walnut. Roll in powdered sugar and place on greased cookie sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. A cracked or wrinkled appearance is normal. 

After baking, allow cookies to cool one or two minutes on baking sheets before removing to a rack.

                                       Enjoy!!
