Just-like-Mrs. Fields' (White) Chocolate Chip Cookies ----------------------------------------------------- Cream together: 2 cups butter 2 cups sugar 2 cups brown sugar Add and combine thoroughly: 4 eggs 2 tsp. vanilla Mix together in a separate bowl: 4 cups flour 5 cups oatmeal (put small amounts of oatmeal in blender until it turns to powder. NOTE: Measure out 5 cups of oatmeal and only "powderize" that (not 5 cups of "powderized" oatmeal) 1 tsp salt 2 tsp baking powder 2 tsp baking soda Mix: All off the above Stir in: 24 oz. bag of chocolate chips and 1 finely grated 8 oz. Hershey bar (plain) 3 cups chopped nuts (any kind) Make golf ball size balls and bake on greased cookie sheet. Bake two inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE!!! Makes 112. WHITE CHOCOLATE CHUNK WITH MACADAMIA NUT COOKIES: For white chocolate with macadamia nuts, substitute white chocolate (vanilla chips are yummy, too) for the chocolate chips in the recipe, and use macadamia nuts. ANOTHER VARIATION: The white chocolate cookies look very nice in contrast if you add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of cocoa to the dough along with the flour. I like to use Dutch process cocoa to give a nice flavor to the cookies.
