THE cookies

I think the main element of these cookies that distinguishes them is how long they're supposed to be cooked--about half the time of regular cookie recipes! we baked them for 8 minutes and they turned out great. Our friend who gave us this recipe also recommended buying the nice chocolate chips--Ghirardelli--just to make sure they turn out perfect. And yeah, they are REALLY, really good--very soft and perfectly chewy, even for days after you've made them.
 
1 c. butter, softened
1 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. white sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 heaping c. of non-instant oatmeal
1 1/2 c. choc chips (milk chocolate)

Cream butter and sugar together for 3 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla. Combine dry ingredients in separate bowl. Beat dry ingredients into creamed mixture. Add chips. Bake at 350 degrees for 6 to 8 mins. Take out a little early and bake for a few minutes on pan before moving to a wire rack.
