Million Dollar Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies Even better than the stuff of urban myth and legend ... :) Makes 3 dozen INGREDIENTS 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup white sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 Tablespoons milk 2 eggs, lightly beaten 2 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 tablespoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking powder 2 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats (not instant) 12 ounces (2 cups) semisweet chocolate chips 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cream the butter with the sugars. Add the vanilla, milk and eggs. Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and blend. Add to the creamed mixture and combine. By hand, stir in the oats, chips and nuts. Drop the dough on parchment lined baking sheets, using a nifty 1 3/4-inch-diameter ice cream scoop or a rounded tablespoon. Flatten lightly to make them a bit more compact and bake for 12-15 minutes. Let sit for 1 minute, then remove to cooling racks. I like to store these in large zip top bags and they freeze well. For that just-out-of-the-oven goodness, pop one (or 2!) in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Try substituting other nuts like pecans or macadamias.
