GIANT BREAKFAST COOKIES

from Heavenly homemakers

Ingredients:

1 cup butter, melted    

3/4 cup honey  

2 eggs    

1 tsp. salt     

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 cup buttermilk

 2 cups whole wheat flour

 2 cups whole rolled oats

1 cup raisins or chocolate chips

Melt and cool butter.  In a glass bowl, stir together flour, oats, butter and cultured buttermilk.  Add a bit more buttermilk than the 1/2 cup the recipe calls for if the grains are not all moistened.  Cover and let the grains soak overnight.  Stir in the remaining ingredients in the morning and bake.

Confession:  I am not one to plan ahead!!  So, if you are like me, this is how you make it...

Melt butter in a glass bowl and let cool.
  Add flour, oats, and buttermilk.  Mix well. 
Let set while you mix the rest of the ingredients.

Mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl.

Add oatmeal mixture to bowl and mix with hand mixer.

Fold in raisins and/or chocolate chips.





Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto a cookie sheet.

Bake at 350* for 15-20 minutes.  Allow to cool 3-4 minutes on cookie sheet
before removing cookies to cool on a wire rack.

YUM!! Enjoy with milk.

Come to find out, one of my kids doesn't like the chocolate chips in anything baked. She said it made them taste like dark chocolate. huh!
