These oatmeal chocolate chip cookies have a little spice, which makes them different from your everyday chocolate chip cookies. They're tasty, and you can't go wrong with oatmeal.

THE RECIPE:

3/4 c. butter, softened
1 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
2 c. rolled oats
1 1/4 c. chocolate chips

In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add sugars, baking powder, soda and spices. Beat until combined. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Add flour. Stir in oats and chocolate chips. Spoon dough onto ungreased cookie sheets, and bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Makes about 60 cookies.
