14 c. (42 oz) quick oats
1 lb chocolate chips
8 tsp. baking soda

Vanilla Sugar Cookies
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 3/4 c. flour
2 tsp baking powder
In large bowl, cream butter and sugar with electric mixer. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Add baking powder and flour one cup at a time, mixing after each addition. Dough will be very stiff and it may be necessary to blend the last of the flour by hand. Do not chill dough! Divide dough into two balls. On floured surface, roll each ball into a 12" circle. Dough should be about 1/8" thick. Dip cookie cutters in flour before each use. Pick up dough around cookies. Bake on ungreased cookie sheets at 400° for 6-7 minutes.
