2 sticks of butter, softened
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. white sugar
2 eggs
2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
Pinch of salt (optional)
2 1/2 c. oatmeal (ground up in cuisinart or blender)
1 lg. bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 lg. Hershey bar, chopped
1 c. nuts

Cream first four ingredients. Blend with flour and oatmeal. Add chips, Hershey bar and nuts. Roll into ping pong sized balls and place on greased cookie sheets, flatten cookies. Bake 400 degrees about 10 minutes. Flattening cookies will make the crispy. If you like chewy cookies use only 1 1/2 cups of oatmeal and bake at 375 degrees.
