- Ready In:
- 25mins
- Ingredients:
- 12
- Yields:
-
24 cookies
ingredients
- 3⁄4 cup peanut butter, creamy
- 1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
- 1⁄4 cup sugar, granulated
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1⁄4 cup milk
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups oats, old fashioned
- 1 cup chocolate chips, semi-sweet
directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together peanut butter, brown sugar and sugar. Then stir in eggs, vanilla extract and milk.
- In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir into wet mixture and combine thoroughly.
- Stir in oats and chocolate chips. Since the dough is relatively stiff, I found it necessary to work the oats and chips into the dough with my hands.
- Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls and place onto a lightly greased cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake at 350 F for 10-13 minutes until cookie bottoms are lightly browned and tops are no longer shiny.
- Remove to a wire rack to cool and enjoy. Store in an air-tight container for up to one week (that is if they last that long). :).

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>My name is Rebecca, but my family and friends call me Becky. I am 33 years old and live in Rochester, New York, USA. I am a life-long resident of Western New York and can't say as I'd ever want to live anywhere else. I grew up on a small dairy farm in rural Western New York and love country living. Although my husband and I live in a suburb right now, we hope someday to move back to our roots and live a peaceful country life. <br /><br />My husband and I have been married for 10 years. We have a beautiful 5-year-old daughter and a 3-year-old son. I am amazed at how quickly our kids are growing and developing. I read a lot about and hold my own personal skepticism regarding the affects of additives such as preservatives, hormones, artificial colorings, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, allergens, etc. With the increasing number of children and adults with food allergies, I am suspicious that the last century of our nation's food industry improvements have contributed. I'm doing the best I can to protect my family from the risks, but it is difficult to avoid every additive. I have friends and family with food allergies and know how difficult it is to cope with food restrictions. I enjoy the challenge of cooking for those with food allergies but can't imagine making it an every-day affair.</p>
