Ingredients

    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1 cup old-fashioned or quick cooking oats
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup peanut butter
    1 egg
    1 1/2 tsp vanilla
    1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

We made 14 cookies.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a mixing bowl combine flour, oats, baking powder and salt; set aside. In another bowl, place butter, sugars and peanut butter. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat peanut butter mixture until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; mix well. Gradually add flour mixture, mixing until well blended after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop heaping tablespoons onto parchment-lined baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 1 minute; remove from baking sheets to wire racks, allow to completely cool.

    This was a good recipe. I used 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 all purpose flour. Also, I made the cookies smaller and got 44 out of the recipe. The nutritional information came out to be calories 98.2, fat 5.3, carbohydrate 12.9, protein 1.5. - 3/16/12

    Delicious! I substituted egg beaters for the whole egg to try to make them a little more healthy and then portioned them to make 42 cookies. Perfect for just a little something sweet when you need it. - 2/3/13

    These are wonderful. I make 30 cookies from the recipe, so the serving size per cookie is 1/2. Unless you eat two cookies! - 3/16/12

    I'm going to try to make these for a dinner tonight but substitute applesauce for the butter to try to make them a little healthier! - 1/23/10

    Although it isn't super healthy, I was impressed with the flavor and fiber in these cookies. They are not diet cookies, but if you portion them well ( I got over 30 small cookies) you could save yourself the calories and still get a great snack that matches your nutritional goals. Great recipe! - 5/2/09

    This recipe is wonderful! I made these cookies without issue.I believe SPARKTIMBRA may have missed a' rising' ingredient (baking soda or powder). I first assemble all my ingredients. I have also used a 'non hydrogenated' butter flavored margarine in place of butter which will flatten the cookies. - 3/25/09

    Very Good
    I have to try this one again, I goofed. :/ I like to add water to the oatmeal to make a fluffier cookie and I added way too much. :/ They still turned out, according to hubby, "Very Good!" :D I did add extra oatmeal to compensate for the water. LOL - 11/30/15

    Bad
    Just made these and for some reason they didn't turn out right at all! The flatened out like pancakes and had a weird fluff to them. I wouldn't follow this recipe again. Something isn't right. - 3/21/09

    My 12 year old makes these about 1x/week with no problems, and she is quite the chocolate chip cookie fan so I checked to see if I made any errors entering the recipe. I've listed as an ingredient both baking soda & baking powder but in the directions left one of them off, maybe try again?
