I’m a much better cook than I am a baker; however, there are two things I can bake rather well (aside from the occasional screw-up of too much anise or forgetting to set the timer): my grandma’s pizzelle’s and chocolate chip cookies.

I remember being home sick one day from school, maybe 7th grade, and Mr. Food was on Morning Exchange. He was making chocolate chip cookies that sounded so good, I wrote down the recipe. I’ve been making them ever since – and being snowed in this weekend, we made plenty. The only modification is now I make them with soy butter, whole-wheat flour and Splenda.

Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
1 c butter
2 c flour (use a little less than 2 full cups)
2 1/2 c oatmeal
1 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
2 eggs
1 t vanilla

Bake at 400 for 8 – 10 minutes. Enjoy.
