CHEWY OATMEAL CHOC CHIP COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F; line two baking sheets with parchment paper or use a silpat.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
• In a large bowl, with a mixer, cream together the butter and the sugars on medium speed.
• Add the egg, followed by the applesauce and vanilla extract.
• Working by hand, stir in the flour mixture and the oats until just combined and no streaks of flour remain; stir in the chocolate chips.
• Drop heaping tablespoonfuls (approx 1 tbsp each) of the dough onto prepared baking sheets, flattening each cookie slightly (I forgot to do this).
• Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until cookies become light brown at the edges.
• Let cool on baking sheet for 3 or 4 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Store in an airtight container so you don't eat them all in one sitting!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, applesauce, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, salt, and baking soda, then gradually stir into the creamed mixture. Finally, stir in the oats, raisins, nuts and chocolate chips.
• Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
