Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chewy, moist...and almost healthy with the addition of oatmeal...these cookies have been a family favorite for decades.  When my grandson comes to visit...we bake cookies...and these are usually his pick!

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda

  2. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
