GIANT CANDY BAR COOKIES

These often don’t make it from the cookie sheet to the cookie jar! A little expensive to make, but simply irresistible.

1 cup hard margarine (or butter), softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup brown sugar, packed

2 large eggs

2 tsp. vanilla

2 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

2 1/3 cups quick cooking rolled oats

8 (1 1/2 oz.) chocolate covered crispy toffee bars (such as Skor or Heath), chopped

1/4 cup granulated sugar for dipping glass

Cream margarine, 1 cup granulated sugar and brown sugar in large bowl. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla. Beat.

Combine next 4 ingredients in small bowl. Add to margarine mixture. Stir until just moistened.

Add rolled oats and chocolate bar pieces. Stir well. Roll into 2 inch balls. Arrange 4 to 6 balls, about 4 inches apart, on greased cookie sheet.

Dip flat bottomed glass into second amount of granulated sugar. Flatten cookies to 1/2 inch thickness, dipping glass in sugar as necessary. Baked in 375 F. oven for about 11 minutes until golden. Let stand on cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

VARIATION: For smaller cookies, roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls. Arrange balls, about 2 inches apart, on greased cookie sheets. Flatten cookies slightly with flat bottomed glass dipped in second amount of granulated sugar. Bake in 375 F. oven for 8 to 10 minutes until golden. Let stand on cookie sheets for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool. Makes about 5 dozen cookies.
