This “one cup” cookie recipe is our go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe. Oatmeal and rice krispies make these cookies crispy and delicious.
The recipe I’m sharing today is another one of my Grandmother’s recipes. One she shared in our Olsen family cookbook — pretty much the bible of cookbooks in our home. It’s one of those cookbooks you can tell has been used a lot.
I hope you enjoy. And I bet you’ll have a hard time going back to plain old chocolate chip after you make these. 😉

Instructions & Recipe Tips
In a large bowl, mix the brown sugar, white sugar, margarine, oil, egg, flour, vanilla, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar.

Mix in the chocolate chips, rice krispies, and oatmeal.
You should have something really close to this. Look at that beautiful cookie dough. 🙂
Drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet. I received this scoop as a gift a few years ago. It works awesome for measuring just the right amount!
I also found this silicone baking sheet at Target and love it. (Here is a similar set in red — I found the blue in-store.)
Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Be sure to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Btw – I purchased Exploding Kittens as part of my brother-in-law’s birthday gift and hoping he opens it this holiday weekend so we can try it out. I’m sure we’ll end up getting our own eventually. And it was fun asking around at stores this week and getting some funny looks. Haha.
