A crisp outside, soft middle, hint of chocolate, and combo of nuts make this one remarkable cookie. It took first prize in the chocolate chip cookie category in a previous festival and remains a favorite treat in many Eureka Springs kitchens. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups butter, softened |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar |
1 large egg |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats |
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted |
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted |
Directions:
1. Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add sugars, beating well. Add egg and vanilla, beating until combined. 2. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating until blended. Stir in oats and remaining ingredients. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets. 3. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool cookies on baking sheets 1 minute; remove to wire racks to cool completely. |
