My awesome cookies...or...how to gain 10 pounds in 1 day.

This is my recipe. I used the recipe for Peanut Butter-Oatmeal Rounds from the Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook, but changed it here and there. 

Here's what you need: 

3/4 cup butter (cold)

1/2 cup peanut butter

1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

2 eggs

1 Tbsp vanilla

1 1/4 cups flour

1/4 cup flax seed meal

2 cups rolled oats

1 cup chocolate chips

 Beat butter and peanut butter on med. speed for 30 sec. or till combined

 It should look like this. See the small clumps of butter? That's a good thing. 

 Add sugar, baking powder and soda. Beat till just combined. 

 Now add the eggs and vanilla. Beat for 30 seconds. 

Now add the flour and flax seed. I have a pretty tough mixer so I just dumped both right in. But you can gradually add the flour and flax seed if you're not so sure about yours. 

 Using a spoon, stir in the oats. 

 Add some chocolate chips. 

 Use a medium scoop or table spoon to scoop mounds onto a baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 12-15min. 

You can tell I used a scoop because mine look like round little mounds. Enjoy!
