I wanted to bake some cookies for my son&#8217;s teachers.  I bought Wilton&#8217;s cookie sheet (large one) from Michael&#8217;s.  The sheet came with 2 festive cookie recipes.  One for chocolate chunk cookies and another one for thumbprint cookies.  I would rather call the chocolate chunk cookie recipe as <strong>oatmeal chocolate chip cookies<\/strong> because it has a good quantity of oatmeal.  I decided to try that recipe for the teachers because it made a huge batch and anything with chocolate chips and walnuts has to be definitely tasty.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span id=\"more-1682\"><br \/>\n<span style=\"float:left;\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-8580655884330693\";\n\/* 300x250, created 12\/11\/09 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"3194220409\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"noPrint\">After trying these <strong>oatmeal chocolate chip cookies<\/strong> I came to one conclusion that Ener-G egg replacer works best in cookie recipes and especially chocolate chip cookies.  So if you have never used Ener-G before but want to use it, start with cookie recipes.  Simply substitute EnerG according to the instructions given in the pack, for the eggs mentioned in the recipe and that&#8217;s all you have to do and the cookies turn out perfect.  My two cents is to use lukewarm water and also use a blender to blend together the powder and water instead of just whisking it with a fork.  Using a blender makes the mixture very frothy and in turn gives desired results.  So in this recipe too, I didn&#8217;t think twice before substituting Ener-G for the 2 eggs in the recipe.  The cookies came out perfect as I expected.<\/div>\n<div class='newline'>\n<\/div>\n<div class='postTabs_divs postTabs_curr_div' id='postTabs_0_1682'>\n<span class='postTabs_titles'><b><strong>Recipe<\/strong><\/b><\/span> <\/p>\n<p><div class=\"recipe-style\">Ingredients:<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Rolled Oats\/Quick Cooking Oats<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 2 and 1\/2 cups<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>All Purpose Flour<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 2 cups<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Baking Powder<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 teaspoon<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Baking Soda<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 teaspoon<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Salt<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1\/2 teaspoon<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Unsalted Butter<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 cup<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Granulated Sugar<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 cup<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Brown Sugar, packed (I used light)<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 cup<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Ener-G Egg Replacer Powder<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 4 teaspoons<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Warm Water<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 7 tablespoons<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Vanilla Extract<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 teaspoon<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Semisweet Chocolate Chips<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 an 1\/2 cups<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='inglong'><span class='inleft'>Walnuts, coarsely chopped<\/span><span class='qtyright'> 1 and 1\/2 cups<\/span><\/p>\n<div style='clear: both;'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Yield: <strong>4 dozen (48 cookies)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"recipe-style\">Procedure:<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"step\">1<\/span> Process the oats in a food processor\/blender.  The texture of the powdered oats was not mentioned<br \/>\nin the original recipe, so I chose a consistency in between coarse and fine.  <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">2<\/span> In a medium size bowl combine together the powdered oats, flour, baking powder, soda and salt; mix well.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">3<\/span> In a blender, blend together the EnerG powder and warm water until it&#8217;s frothy; set aside.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">4<\/span> In another large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars with an electric mixer until light and fluff.  Beat in the EnerG mixture and vanilla.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">5<\/span> Add the flour mix to the sugar mixture; mix well.  Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts.  <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">6<\/span> Cover the bowl with a plastic wrap and chill the dough at least for an hour.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">7<\/span> Around the 45th minute, start preheating the oven to 350F\/175C for 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">8<\/span> Scoop out heaping tablespoons of cookie dough; drop it on ungreased cookie sheet 2 inches apart.  Bake on middle rack for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.  For crisper cookies, I would suggest flattening the dough instead of just dropping them.  The scooped out dough doesn&#8217;t spread much, so it&#8217;s very chewy in the middle. In that case I think the baking time will also reduce by a minute or two.  I used an aluminum pan, so mine took about 13 minutes.  The baking time will vary if you are using a dark coating non stick cooking pan.  Be sure to check it earlier.  I used to 2 cookie sheets at a time.  So I shifted the pan from the middle layer to the bottom layer and vice-versa after 6 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"step\">9<\/span> Remove the baking sheets from the oven and place it on wire racks.  Let the cookies stand for 5 minutes because the cookies will continue to bake.  After 5 minutes, transfer the cookies to the cooling racks directly using a spatula and let it cool completely before storing it in an airtight container.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class='postTabs_divs' id='postTabs_1_1682'>\n<span class='postTabs_titles'><b><strong>Taste<\/strong><\/b><\/span> These <strong>oatmeal chocolate chip cookies<\/strong> tasted very good, crispy on the edges and chewy in the middle.
