Merry Christmas friends! You may have heard this story. This recipe has been circulating around for years claiming that a Neiman-Marcus Cafe customer asked for this cookie recipe and was charged $250 so she made the recipe go public. Whether it is true or not, this cookie is really delicious. I didn’t add the chopped nuts to mine but you may choose to do so.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
2 1/2 cups oatmeal, blended (measure 2/12 cups of oatmeal and blend in a blender or food processor until a fine powder).
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
12 oz chocolate chips
4 oz Hershey bar, grated
1 1/2 cups chopped nuts, optional
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 Farenheit.
Cream butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Add chocolate chips, Hershey bar and nuts (optional).
Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Bake for 11 minutes.
