Chocolate Chip cookies - MY WAY

[applecruncher]

For many years I made chocolate chip cookies from scratch.

Lately I've been doing something different.

Buy 2 packs of 'break & bake' cookie dough without nuts.
Also a small pkg of black walnuts.

Open both pkgs (let the dough get soft).
Add: handful of old fashioned whole wheat oats, handful of brown sugar, tablespoon of vanilla, dash of cinnamon, 1/2 pkg of black walnuts.

Grease your hands with margarine (or butter). Mix everything together.

Put portions on cookie sheet...whatever size you like.

Bake. But watch carefully....I like my cookies a bit "doughy" and warm.

Put a glass of milk in the freezer.

YUM!!

^^ :yes:

Sometimes creating things our way is the best. Never considered doctoring up the break and bake packages. I buy them often

A penalty has been levied against you for teasing us with morsels of cookie goodness.

I am PM'ing you my home address now and will expect to take receipt of some cookies very soon.

Great idea, I'll give it a try!

Remember to hide the wrappers and sprinkle a little flour on the kitchen floor! nthego:

Notice except for vanilla I did no measuring. Handful, dash, etc. Also, the black walnuts are strong but add a special "zing".

I like cooking that way. My grandparents had a black walnut tree in their yard.

That sounds so good. I love black walnuts. Someone gave me a bag of black walnuts years ago. Took forever to get to the nuts. I had black hands for a week after. Nice to be able to dump them right out of a bag.

I haven't cracked/picked them since I was a kid. The pkg I bought is 2.25 oz in the baking goods aisle and half the bag is plenty. They are strong but gooood! The entire bag would have over-powered the chocolate chips and other ingredients. btw the oatmeal is good for balancing and cohesiveness.

I'm going to be back in Ohio in a couple of weeks - could you whip a fresh batch for me?

There's nothing tastier than homemade chocolate chip cookies...IMO. My wife always keeps some on hand to feed my "addiction". I don't like nuts in them, and the only thing she adds to the recipe is a half spoonful of cinnamon..Great!

Mmmm sounds good. I could use one right now!
