Category: Cookies

1 cup butter, softened

1-1/2 cups sugar

1 large egg

1/4 cup water

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1-1/2 cups all purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

3 cups quick cooking oats, uncooked

2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray several cookie sheets with non stick cooking spray.

Beat butter at medium speed of an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add egg, water, and vanilla, mixing well.

Combine flour, soda, salt, cinnamon; add to creamed mixture, mixing well. Stir in oats and chocolate chips.

Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls onto greased cookie sheets-being sure to keep them two inches apart. Bake for 16-18 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly on cookie sheets; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
