Recipe - Famous Amos Hawaiian Nut Cookie

This is one good chocolate chip cookie recipe! Don't know whether
it is really the famous amos recipe, but I've tried it and it is really very
good. Try it, will definitely turn out well. This recipe makes loads and loads.

Recipe may be halved:

2 cups butter

4 cups flour

2 tsp. baking soda

2 cups granulated sugar

2 cups brown sugar

5 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal &

blend in blender to a fine

powder)

24 oz. chocolate chips

1 tsp. salt

1 8 oz. Cadbury bar (grated)

4 eggs

2 tsp. baking powder

3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)

2 tsp. vanilla

Method :

Cream the butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla; mix together

with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and soda. Add chocolate

chips,

Hershey bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a

cookie sheet..Bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees. Makes 112

cookies..

Points to note:

Do get the Hersheys Choc Chips, they are more chocolatey and sinful!

You need 2 packets for this recipe.

Also get the Hersheys Choc Bars - yum! yum! I just smashed them up

and tossed them in the first time I tried this recipe. The 2nd time, I

actually melted the Chocolate Bar.

The 1st method would give you choc chunk surprises when you bite into

your chocolate chip cookie which is lovely but the 2nd method would

give you a darker shade of brown cookie. Depending on your preference,

really. My hubby loves the 1st chunky bits of choc all smashed up method.

Perhaps you can combine.

Me, I am a no nut choc chip person, so you won't find any nuts in

my chocolate chip cookie!
