Ingredients
2 cups butter
4 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups brown sugar
5 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal and blend in blender to a fine powder)

1 tsp. salt
1 8 oz. Hershey bar (grated)
4 eggs
2 tsp. baking powder
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)
2 tsp. vanilla
Preparation
Nieman Marcus Cookie Recipe
It doesn’t matter where this recipe came from-it makes some damn good cookies!
Cream the butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla; mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and soda. Add chocolate chips, Hershey bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet..Bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees.
My adjustments:
* Cut the white sugar by 25%
* No nuts (because my friend wanted macadamia or nothing and I didn't have any macadamia)
* Didn't have a Hershey bar but had half a tin of cinnamon/chili dark chocolate from Trader Joe's. Cut it up with a knife and tossed it into the batter.
* In the past, I have put some ground coffee into the batter as well (but not this time)
