Bubba's Bar 'n' Grill

1 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 cups quick cooking oats
1 12 oz bag of crumbled toffee and chocolate bits

Guidance

1. In a medium bowl, cream together brown sugar, butter (let stand for at least 30 mins before use, or microwave for 5-10 seconds) and white sugar. Beat in eggs, add vanilla and stir to incorporate.

2. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. Slowly stir into the creamed mixture to avoid excess loss. Slowly mix in oats, and then mix in toffee bits. Cover and chill dough for at least half an hour.

3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Form the dough into balls, and place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.

4. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

This recipe makes approximately 36 to 60 cookies, depending on size.

Are these more of a chewy or crunchy cookie?

Since this is the thread with cookies in it... here is my contribution they are called :
3-Chips Cookies

1 cup White Sugar
1 cup packed Brown Sugar
1/2 cup softened Butter
3/4 cup packed Vegetable Shortening
1 Egg
1 Tablespoon of Milk
1 Tablespoon of Vanilla Extract
3 1/2 cups all purpose Flour
1 Tablespoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Vegetable Oil

1 12 ounce Bag Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 10 or 11 ounce Bag of Butterscotch Chips
1 10 or 11 ounce Bag of White Chocolate Chips
1 cup 1 Minute (instant) Cook Oatmeal
2 cups Old Fashion Rolled Oats - oatmeal

In a large mixer ( I use a Kitchen-Aid) cream together sugars, butter and shortening. When is is mixed well and lighter in color add in the egg, milk , vanilla and again mix well. In another bowl sift the flour, salt,and baking soda together. Take the well sifted flour mix and vegetable oil and begin to alternately add them slowly into the mixer of the creamed items. The dough should be light in color and creamy then fold the 3 bags of chips and the oatmeals by hand into the cookie dough mixture.
Drop by rounded teaspoons ( I use a cookie scoop) onto ungreased cookie sheets
Bake @ 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes ( time will depend on your oven)
This recipe makes about 5 dozen cookies (but there could be less if you make them bigger)
They tend to be a crunchy cookie

These cookies are right in between soft and crunchy.

Orange Delight Cookies

1 C butter
1 1/2 C brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 sour cream or 1/2 + 1/2 (I use the half and half)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3 C flour
1 1/2 orange rind

Mix and drop from spoon. Bake at 375 degrees.
Frost with orange frosting.
2 tsp melted butter
2 C confectioners sugar
1 tsp grated orange rind
orange juice - enough to make a consistency to brush on top with a pastry brush.
I use fresh squeezed OJ - usually from the orange I grated the rind off of.

They are soft and very tasty. They are usually the first to go on a platter of cookies.

2Beers and RN-PRN: your recipes look awesome (yours too, Jonnie4000). May I suggest they have their own threads? Viewers might miss them...

I will be baking a batch of these on Sunday, will let you know how they turn out, thanks.

Jonnie: Please note. Made cookies today forgetting to add 1 tsp baking soda, recipe still works. They came out great, Oh and one other mistake, the batch only made 28 cookies.
