Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease cookie sheets. Stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, brown sugar and white sugar. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients using a wooden spoon. Mix in the oats and chocolate chips. Drop by tablespoons onto cookie sheets, leaving 2 inches between cookies.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Just the right amount of ooie and gooie. I used 1/2 the cinnamon because sometimes too much cinnamon ruins a cookie, and I didn't grease the cookie sheets. No need for that. I also blended my oatmeal in my blender just to give it a little different texture than thick oatmeal. Very yummy.
