ol' reliable... think i'm in love

These cookies...are amazing. They taste even better after a couple days of sitting on the kitchen counter (i mean what cookie tastes better when its left out?!) They have never let me down...  I got this recipe actually from my ex "boyfriends" mom hah. Funny story which i won't go into-it'll just turn into a rant. Have them right outa of the oven with some milk and count your blessings- this one trumps them all :)

CHOCOLATE CHIP OATMEAL COOKIES
(no raisins!)
3 c oatmeal
2 eggs
1 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
1 c butter softened
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 c flour
chocolate chips

the routine:
Mix all dry ingredients together. Then in separate bowl, soften butter (if you melt it the cookies will turn to mush instead of clumps) and add in eggs and vanilla and dumb into the dry mix. Stir until the dough gets sticky. Add in chocolate chips (raisins are a disgrace to oatmeal cookies). (taste dough ;) Spoon clumps (as big or as small as you’d like) onto cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for about 10-12 minutes or until cookies are brown on edges or desired consistency. Eat with milk!

PSST. For some extra comfort, scoop up some vanilla ice cream- place some on one cookie and place another on top- sandwich time!
