Cookie Sunday

I baked. If we have room in our suitcase, I'll take some of these for Luke and his friends. They're the cookie that I make most often and one that will remind Luke of home. I'd better get these into the freezer before Kevin and I eat them all.

Here's the recipe.

Jazzed Up Oatmeal Cookies

1 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs

1-1/2 cups flour

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

3 cups rolled oats

1-1/2 cups dried cranberries (I like the orange flavoured ones best)

1-1/2 cups chocolate chips (I like the dark chocolate chips best)

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
• Cream butter with sugars and mix in eggs and vanilla
• Mix the salt and soda into the flour and add to the creamed mixture
• Stir in oats
• Stir in cranberries and chocolate chips
• Drop in mounds on cookie sheet
• Bake for 10 minutes

Have one and try to resist a second. If you use the orange flavoured cranberries, they taste even better after a day because the orange flavour intensifies with some time. Yummmm ...
