Ingredients
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup margarine, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups uncooked quick oats
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a cookie sheet. Cream together the sugar and margarine. Stir in the egg and vanilla. Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Stir into the creamed mixture. Add the oats and chocolate chips. If the dough is too stiff, add up to 1/4 cup water. Drop with a cookie dough scoop onto the prepared cookie sheet, and bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
Yield: 4 dozen medium-sized cookies
Tips From Our Test Kitchen:
This batter can be refrigerated for an hour to firm it up before baking. An additional cup of chocolate chips and 1/2 cup chopped of walnuts are also good in this soft and chewy cookie.
