Love this old recipe! We only make 1/2 the recipe. I put the oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, *cinnamon, and *cocoa powder in the blender and mix. Then I add the mix to 1 cup white flour, 1 cup of wheat flour. I added *Amaretto to the sugar/butter/egg/vanilla. I add the dry ingredient in thirds; it seems easier to mix. The first batch we cooked for 8 min., the second for 9 min. I rolled two more batches, covered them and put them in the freezer for another day. My husband preferred the 9 min ones because when you eat them warm they are less "doughy". Thank you for posting the recipe!!

I used a food processor for the oatmeal. Halved the recipe and made smaller cookies so that the yield was about 7 dozen. I used a touch more salt which I like in a chocolate chip cookie. Mini-chocolate Chips, mini m&ms, no nuts, no grated chocolate bar (because I used a lot of chips and candies). Delicious!

I have been making this recipe for over 30 years now. My kitchen aid mixer cannot keep up. Oh well, there is nothing like good old fashioned HAND MIXING when needed. I just wear gloves now if sending the cookies outside the house. Also I always make the cookies a tad smaller then called for and I get about 12 dozen everytime. YUM!
