Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies & A Contest!!
Freezer cooking doesn't always have to be about the main dish. Desserts freeze great too. This doesn't always have to be a big effort either. Last week I wanted to make cookies for play group. I didn't want to cook all the cookies, so I made up what I needed and froze the rest. To freeze cookie dough, simply scoop out the dough with a small ice cream scoop (I think mine is a 1 inch scoop). Place the balls on wax paper on a cookie sheet and pop in the freezer until they are solid. Transfer to a ziploc bag. When you are ready to cook, just plan on baking for a couple extra minutes. Watch them closely, but usually it takes about 3 extra minutes.
Here is my favorite oatmeal cookie recipe.
OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
½ cup shortening
½ cup butter
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cup flour
2 eggs
1 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup oatmeal
1 cup coconut
8 oz Heath bits
2 cups chocolate chips
Cream shortening, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Add dry ingredients and beat. Add remaining ingredients. Drop on sprayed sheet. Bake at 350° for 10-12 min.
Now for the contest! I admit I am curious as to who actually reads this blog. I haven't been really active lately about posting new recipes, but my freezer is getting low so I really have to start cooking again. If there are many people interested in freezer cooking, I will really try to be more active about keeping it up. So, help me get the word out. Pass this blog onto your friends and tell them how fabulous it is to have a freezer full of food.
The winner will receive a $15 gift card to Smiths/Kroger.
To enter simply provide your favorite cookie recipe in the comments section along with your name. The winner will be picked randomly. I will post the winner next Monday, February 15th. Good luck!
