I grew up eating these. This is a recipe originally from an old Nestle cookbook that my mom adapted to suit us. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
2 eggs |
1 cup flour, sifted |
1 cup oatmeal |
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1 teaspoon shortening |
1/2 cup walnuts, finely chopped |
Directions:
1. Combine butter, brown sugar, and vanilla and beat until creamy. 2. Beat in the eggs. 3. Add the flour and oatmeal. 4. Spread in a greased 9x13 pan. 5. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes. 6. Cool slightly. 7. Combine chocolate chips and shortening and melt in a double boiler or carefully in a saucepan. 8. Spread over baked mixture. 9. Sprinkle with chopped nuts. |
