These cookies will knock your socks off!
2 c. brown sugar, packed
2 c. white sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 lb butter or margerine
4 c. flour
1 1/2 c. oatmeal
1 . chopped nuts
4 eggs
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
4 c. cornflakes
12 oz chocolate chips (regular sized bag)
Cream sugars and butter until fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs until it is completely incorporated with the sugar mixture. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in separate bowl. Mix in a cup or so at a time until all of the flour mixture has been added. Fold in oatmeal, cornflakes, nuts, and chocolate chips. Bake 10 -12 minutes in a 325 degree preheated oven for chewy cookies, a bit longer for harder cookies. Makes about 15 dozen.
Tips: while one batch of cookies is baking, put remaining dough in the fridge. Also, for chewy cookies remove from oven when edges are brown even if the center still looks a tiny bit doughy(not sure if that is even a word!). They finish off baking when out of the oven. One more thing. Let cookies rest on pan for about 1 minute after removing from oven, transfer to wire racks to cool.
