Professor Kuenning's Killer Chocolate-Chip Cookies

This recipe comes from Prof. Kuenning's grandma Myrtle. It was passed on to him by his great-aunt Nadine after Myrtle died. If you like these cookies, please pass them on to your own grandkids someday!

1. Cream together:
   • 1/4 pound butter or margarine,
   • 1/2 cup brown sugar,
   • 1/2 cup white sugar.
2. Add:
   • 1 egg,
   • 1 cup flour,
   • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda,
   • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder,
   • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla,
   • 1 cup Quick Quaker Oats (or any quick-cooking oatmeal),
   • 1 small package (6 ounces) of chocolate chips (quality matters -- you'll get much better cookies if you use Ghirardelli than if you use Nestle). Use milk, dark, or double chocolate, to taste.
3. Mix well.
4. Add 1 cup Rice Krispies (or generic equivalent). Mix gently by hand to avoid crushing.
5. Form into small balls about 1 inch in diameter and place on a well-greased cookie sheet.
6. Bake 7 minutes at 375 degrees Farenheit.
