Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or leave ungreased.
  2. In a blender, pulse small amounts of oatmeal until it forms a fine powder. Set aside.
  3. Grate the 2 oz Hershey chocolate bar using a box grater. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  5. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  6. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, powdered oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  8. Fold in the chocolate chips and grated Hershey chocolate bar.
  9. Drop golf-ball-sized scoops of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets.
  10. Bake for 6 minutes or until edges are golden but centers are still soft. Do not overcook.
  11. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Note

Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Tip: For softer cookies, do not overbake. Remove them when they look slightly underdone in the center.

Variation: Add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.

Ingredient Note: Ensure the butter is fully softened for proper creaming, which ensures a tender texture.
