              These cookies are a delightful chocolaty twist on the traditional oatmeal cookie. 
 
 Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
 
 1 ½ cups sugar
 1 cup butter, softened
 2 eggs
 2 ½ (1 oz.) squares unsweetened baking chocolate, melted
 2 teaspoons vanilla
 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
 2 teaspoons baking powder
 ½ teaspoon salt
 3 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats
 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
 
 Directions
 
 Heat oven to 350 degrees.
 
 Combine sugar and butter in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs, chocolate and vanilla; continue beating, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Reduce speed to low; add flour, baking powder and salt. Beat until well mixed. Stir in oats and chocolate chips by hand.
 
 Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls, 2-inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until set. Do Not Overbake.
