This recipe is an adaptation of several recipes I love. They are crisp on the outside and soft and chewy in the middle. Oatmeal, peanutbutter, mini m&m cookies. Ingredients:
1 cup butter |
1/2 cup peanut butter |
1 cup sugar (baker's sugar is great!) |
1 cup light brown sugar |
3 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 (12 ounce) bag chocolate chips or 1 (12 ounce) bag miniature m&m baking bits |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1 cup old fashioned oats or 1 cup quick-cooking oats |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. Mix flour, oats, baking soda and powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
3. Cream the butter and peanut-butter. Add sugar, mix well. Beat in each egg separately. Then add vanilla. Gradually beat in the dry ingredients. Set aside 1/2 cup of the M&M's, or chocolate chips; with a large wooden spoon, mix in the remaining M&M's or chocolate chips.
4. Line a baking sheet with Parchment paper and drop cookies by the tablespoonful about 2 inches apart. Take 3-4 M&M's from the 1/2 cup set aside and press them into the cookie so they will show after baking.
5. Bake for 8-9 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges and the centers are NOT completely set but no longer shiny. Let cookies finish cooking on sheet for 2-5 minutes and transfer to a wire wrack to cool.
