MILLION DOLLAR COOKIES

This cookie is to die for very good with a tall glass of milk or cup of coffee. I had these cookies years ago at my families house during a passing away which everyone brought something and I had to have the recipe. I never changed it and it was a comfort food at that time. I make these when I need a warm feeling in my soul.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 c butter, softened
1 c whie sugar
1 c brown sugar, firmly packed
2 eggs room temperture
1 tsp vanilla
2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 1/2 c oatmeal, uncooked and finely blended
12 oz chocolate chips
1/2 tsp salt
4 oz hersheys choc. bar (grated)
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 c chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • 1. Measure oatmeal and blend in blender to a fine powder and set aside. In large bowl put butter and both sugars and mix with a fork. Add eggs and vanilla and mix till blended with fork.
  • 2. In another bowl combine flour,oatmeal,salt,baking powder, baking soda Combine this with the egg mixture but now use a strong spatula or metal spoon this will make the batter hard to mix. Once this is mixed well its time to add your choc. chips and grated Hershey and nuts.
  • 3. The batter will be hard to mix but I have faith you can do it. Once all mixed I put mine in frig. to get cold for easy handling about 20 mins. Once it is cold shape into balls, I use a medium size cookie scoop .
  • 4. Place 2" apart on greased cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 mins. pending on your oven. Bake at 350* The cookie will be slightly brown on bottom and soft to the touch on top which is what you want. Take out and put on wire rack or wax paper. In one batch I got 80 cookies. Or just roll your own.

Tips for Making Million-Dollar Sugar Cookies:

  • For the best flavor, use real butter. Unsalted butter is preferred so you can control the amount of salt in the cookies.
  • Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients blend together more smoothly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until it is light and fluffy. This will help the cookies be light and airy.
  • Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

Million-dollar sugar cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of cookies that will be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try.
