Chocolate Chunk Cookies

This is a little spin on chocolate chip cookies.  You can never go wrong with those!

1 C. all purpose flour
1/2 C. rolled oats
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 C. butter softened
1 /2 C. granulated sugar
1/2 C. firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/4 C. chocolate chunks

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Lightly grease baking sheets or line them with parchment paper.  Combine the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.  Mix well, set aside.

Combine the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl.  Beat with an electric mixer set on medium speed until creamy, 1-2 minutes.  Beat in egg and vanilla.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture.  Reduce speed to low.  Beat until blended, 1-2 minutes.  Fold in the chocolate chunks.

Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls on the prepared baking sheets.  Bake until lightly browned, 8-10 minutes.  Cool for 1 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
