Neiman's $250 Cookie Recipe (Dee and Nellie)

You've probably heard the silly story behind this recipe; I'm not sure if it's true or not, but these are some very rich cookies!

Neiman's $250 Cookies

small batch, makes about 28

1 cube soft butter

1/2 c. brown sugar

1/2 c. white sugar

1 egg

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 c. flour

1 1/4 cup blended oatmeal

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

6-8 oz chocolate chips (i use a combo of butterscotch, white, and mini semi-sweet)

1/2 c. coconut

2/3 c. chopped nuts

2 oz. hershey bar, grated

Cream butter and both sugars.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and bakiong soda.  Add chips and nuts.  Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet.  Bake 6 minutes at 375 degrees.  

Notes:  The original recipe was 4 times this one!  If you want to make the whole thing (112 cookies), the extra dough freezes wonderfully.  Just roll into balls prior to freezing.
