Neiman Marcus Cookies

{{Neiman Marcus Cookies}}

2 cups butter

2 cups granulated sugar

2 cups brown sugar

4 eggs

2 tsp. vanilla

4 cups flour
5 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal, then blend in a blender to a fine powder)

1 tsp. salt

2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. baking soda
24 oz. chocolate chips
1- 8 oz. Hershey chocolate bar (grated)
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice- walnuts, pecans, etc. I've also made the cookies with no nuts)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together the butter and both sugars. Blend in eggs and vanilla. Mix together flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and add to butter/sugar mixture. Add chocolate chips, grated Hershey bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Makes about 10-12 dozen cookies.

This recipe makes A LOT of cookies. Recipe can be cut in half for half as many cookies (obviously!) and even better the recipe can be quartered and it makes about 3 dozen cookies. Much nicer for a small family of 4. Sometimes the numbers get crazy when you are trying to downsize a recipe and I always make mistakes, so I like to write them down.
