Secret Ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookies
A really chewy softer chocolate chip cookie I've been making them for a number of years now and am sorry to have forgotten which friend gave me this recipe------------ if you have quick oats you can just add them as is....but if you have the regular oatmeal you will need to process it in your blender or food processor..I always just use ouick oats because I like the look of the oats in the cookie and the secret ingredient?? lemon juice I remember thinking the 1st time I made them " lemon juice in a cookie??" according to the note at the bottom of my recipe I've written the lemon juice helps to activate the baking soda creating a chewy soft cookie I think you'll like these!!
