SHREDDED WHEAT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and lightly grease a large baking sheet or two.
• Combine the shredded wheat and 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips in the food processor. Blend until it is finely ground.
• Cream together the butter and the two sugars in a very large bowl.
• Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
• Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Stir in the shredded wheat mixture.
• Add the remaining chocolate chips. Feel free to experiment with adding other things like white chocolate or dark chocolate chips, nuts, M&M's, toffee pieces, anything you like.
• Drop by flat tablespoons onto the lightly greased baking sheets and pop them into the oven.
• Check them after 8 minutes or so. Depending on the pan you use, they could be done or it could take as much as 12-15 minutes.
• Pull them out when the edges are slightly browned and the middle looks soft and squishy, but isn't doughy.
• Make sure you cool them completely before packing in an airtight container. When they are suitable to pack, they can stay at room temperature for awhile.

CRUNCHY PEANUT-BUTTER COOKIES WITH SHREDDED WHEAT

Steps:

• Mix together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
• Add eggs and vanilla and beat until light.
• Sift the flour with the soda and salt; stir into creamed mixture until well blended.
• Lightly mix in the shredded wheat and peanuts.
• Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of batter, about 2 inches apart, on ungreased cookie sheets. (This makes rather ragged cookies, so I like to roll them into balls first, but little pieces of shredded wheat DO stab a bit!) Using the tines of a fork, press dough flat in each direction to make a crisscross pattern on top of each cookie.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
• Makes about 8 dozen cookies.
