Oatmeal-Nut Cookie

These are Dave's favorite cookies. He said "If I could only have five foods for the rest of my life it would be these cookies, Lime Tostitos, JackLinks Pepper Beef Jerky, Diet Mt. Dew and Lava Flows". He has asked me for these cookies for a long time now so since I am in a baking mood I made them.

These cookies are relatively healthy, supper yummy and easy to make.


Oatmeal-Nut Cookies

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
2 large eggs
3 cups old-fashioned oats, uncooked
1 1/2 cup walnuts (or whatever nuts you like)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350. Line cookie sheet with parchmant paper. On waxed paper, combine flour, baking soda and salt.
2. In a large bowl, with mixer at medium speed, beat sugars and butter until creamy. Beat in vanilla, then eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. At low speed, gradually add flour mixture; beat just until blended, occasionally scraping the bowl. Stir in walnuts.
3. Drop dough by heaping tablespoons, 2 inches apart. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown. Cool and ENJOY.

I'll try these too! I wish Matt would request anything with nuts in it. Maybe if I disguise them in cookies he'll like them. I think I could live off these cookies like Dave too.
