RECIPES AT THE TOP! Chit Chat at the bottom.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. (Makes app. 24 cookies.)

1 1/2 cups Old Fashioned Oats
3/4 cup All Purpose Flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk (I used 1 small whole egg instead of a large yolk)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Soften butter (I used the microwave just until softened).

Add sugar (brown sugar and white) and STIR WELL. Then add the eggs and stir again until smooth. STIR IN the cocoa, baking soda, salt, vanilla. THEN add flour and oats. Stir until blended. Add chocolate chips and stir again.

(I refrigerated for about 30 minutes and made balls since I don't have a cookie scoop.)

Bake on sprayed cookie sheet (or lined with parchment paper) at 350 degrees for 13 minutes. Let cool a few minutes before removing to a cooling rack.

Hello everyone!

I'm stopping by to add this delicious, simple, and homemade cookie recipe to the blog. I hadn't made these in forever and wanted to make sure to save this recipe for making often.

I remember eating them soft and warm, freshly made in our high school's kitchen by "lunchroom ladies" who really knew how to crank out the cookies! That is where I first tried chocolate chip - chocolate oatmeal cookies. Those ladies were the bomb diggety! Although, rarely nice to us, they were spotlessly clean and fantastic cooks! We never made chit chat with them but totally respected and were in awe of their talents.

I made this recipe yesterday and they turned out so wonderful! They will be a great addition to school and work lunches for a small treat. I love that they have oats! For some reason, that takes a little of the guilt away, doesn't it?

My husband and I are the only ones home most days so I only baked one cookie sheet of these babies. The rest, I made into little balls and placed in a small pan for freezing. After they were frozen, I bagged them up for baking another day.

Enjoy!

Best Dill Pickles EVER! (Just like Claussen) (Easy - no canning!)

Do you want to make the best, easiest homemade dill pickles in the world? I found a recipe for dill pickles that tastes JUST LIKE Claussen refrigerator pickles. Those are the best anyway, right? That crunch, the dill and the garlic... and oh yea , the crunch! This recipe is super easy because you don't have to process these pickles which means there is no canning needed. You just fill a gallon jar (we use an old pickle jar) with fresh cucumbers and dill heads, and then pour over the cooled liquids/seasonings. Let it sit on the counter for three days, and then refrigerate. After that, the pickle eating begins. They are supposed to keep for one year like that in the fridge, without canning. (We let them sit for the 3 days, then refrigerated them overnight before opening the jar for the much anticipated first taste. Did they taste like Claussen? YOU BET YOUR PRETTY PICKLE THEY DID! We were all SO ex...

Buttermilk Biscuits - Just like Cracker Barrel!

RECIPES AT THE TOP - CHIT CHAT AT THE BOTTOM! Here's how we make Buttermilk Biscuits AT HOME MY WAY: Buttermilk Biscuits (just like Cracker Barrel) (Makes about 8 biscuits.) PRINTABLE RECIPE HERE Ingredients: 2 cups SELF RISING flour (self rising flour gives the perfect taste to homemade biscuits) 1/3 cup shortening (cold real butter also works here) 1 1/4 cup buttermilk* *NOTE: (If using regular milk combined with lemon juice vinegar referenced below, you only need 1 cup of milk because thinner regular milk uses less by volume than the thick real buttermilk.) Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. (Make sure your flour is "fluffed" not straight from the bag; Dump it in a larger container and stir using up and down motion to fluff it up a little bit-THEN measure out 2 cups). Measure 2 cups SELF RISING flour into a mixing bowl. Add shortening and cut it until small and crumbly. A fork works fine for this purpose ...
