Secret Ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookies Jorgensen Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Process rolled oats in a food processer or blender until finly ground.
• Combine ground oats, flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a mixing bowl.
• In a second bowl, cream butter, sugar, vanilla and lemon juice together with electric mixer.
• Add eggs and beat until fluffy.
• Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture, blending well.
• Add the chocolate chips and nuts to the dough and mix well.
• Using about 1/4 cup dough for each cookie, scoop round balls and place 2 1/2-inches apart on to parchment-lined baking sheet--a ice cream scoop works well.
• Bake until cookies are lightly browned, 16-18 minutes. (Time will depend on how large you make the cookies--I actually prefer them about 1/8 cup dough per cookie and they cook in about 10 minutes).
• Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Store in a zip-top container to keep them soft and chewy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• Into a bowl sift together flour, baking soda, and salt and stir in oats.
• In bowl of a standing electric mixer beat butter with sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in Nestle's Quik until combined well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, and beat in vanilla. Add flour mixture, beating until just combined, and stir in chocolate chips.
• Arrange rounded tablespoons of dough about 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets and bake in batches in middle of oven 12 minutes, or until golden. Transfer cookies to racks to cool.
