Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies (from Jen Sherwood- sister)
½ cup butter
½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp milk
1 cup flour
½ tsp salt
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
1 cup oatmeal
½ cup coconut
1 cup chocolate chips
Cream butter and sugars together. Add egg, vanilla and milk. Add the next 4 ingredients. Add the oatmeal and coconut. Mix in the chocolate chips by hand if you don't want them crushed in a mixer.
Bake on greased cookie sheet at 350 for 11 minutes.
"This recipe is from one of mom's cookbooks. I started making them when I was 10 or 11 and this is easily my favorite cookie recipe. I would make a quadruple batch for our family, and there would be nothing left the next day. It is the only cookie recipe that I have memorized and I make it often. I like to think that the oatmeal makes them a little bit healthier than regular chocolate chip cookies, but it probably doesn't count for much."- Jen Sherwood
