Outrageous Chocolate Oatmeal Chipper Cookies

by Kathleen Morrison

Servings: 40

INGREDIENTS

1-1/2 cups rolled oats
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
2 oz. semisweet chocolate chips *
3 oz. milk chocolate, chopped
3 oz. white chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup blanched almonds, chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place 1-1/4 cups of the oats in the container of a food processor, and process until fine, 1 minute. Beat the butter with both sugars in the large bowl of an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Combine the processed oats with the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add to the butter mixture. Then stir in the remaining 1/4 cup oats, the chocolates, and the almonds.

Drop the dough by spoonfuls onto the ungreased baking sheets, and bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool slightly on the sheets before removing.
