Cookies! Cookies! Cookies!

You can't go wrong with cookies. Tonight I made chocolate chip & mini peanut butter cup cookies. Yum, yum, yum.

They were made using whole wheat flour and steel cut oats, so they are healthy, right?? Okay, so, I guess not, but they are delicious!!

Ingredients:

• 2 cup whole wheat flour (my cups were not quite filled to the top)
• 1 t baking soda
• 1 salt
• 1 cup butter (I actually used just under 1 cup because that's all I had and I melted the butter)
• 3/4 sugar
• 3/4 brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 t vanilla
• 1/4 steel cut oats
• 3/4 bag chocolate chips
• 5 oz. mini peanut butter cups

Preparation

1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Mix well.
2. In a larger bowl, combine butter (melted) and sugars. Mix well. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix well.
3. Gradually add flour to the wet ingredients and stir until combined. Stir in oats and add chocolate chips and mini peanut butter cups.
4. Preheat oven to 350 or 375 degrees (depends on your oven - I have a small oven and did my cookies at 350 for 12 minutes and only did 6 cookies at a time).

My cookies stuck to the pan a bit because I didn't have an butter to grease the pan or parchment paper or silicone mats or anything, but part of the fun of cookies can be the melted chocolate on the pan.

This was the first time I've used whole wheat flour and I was happy with the results.
