Here are some cookies that my family and I adore! They are so yummy and quite easy!

"100 Best Cookie"

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup butter

1 cup oil

1 tsp. vanilla

1 egg

3 1/2 cups flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. cream of tarter

1 cup oatmeal

2 cup chocolate chips

1 cup rice crispies

1 cup chopped nuts(I never add these)

DIRECTIONS:

"Paralee's Sugar Cookies"

1 cup butter
1 1/2 cup sguar
3 well beaten egg yolks
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cream of tarter

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375. Cream butter and sugar. Add yolks, mix well. Add flour, soda, and tarter. Add vanilla. Roll into balls. Dip in sugar. Bake for 10 minutes.
**To keep these soft and chewy, make sure you put them in foil or cover them - they harden quickly!**

Resting away....

I am loving that first cookie - why haven't I ever added rice crispies to cookies? They must make a wonderful crunch. Delicious!

Congrats to Jenny! What a great title! Your cookies look good. I am going to have to try adding rice crispies in! Great idea!

The cookies look so good, which actually surprises me since they are made with oil, not butter. I tried some oil ones once and they were weird little bomb rocks. And cream of tartar--that's different. I'll have to give this one a try sometime!You sure have a lucky family with all your goodies!
