Dessert: Chocolate Chip Cookies

Recipe by Cynthia Gorney Three splurge items improve these quite a bit: (1) the best-quality dark chocolate chips you can find, (2) really good cookie sheets — the heavy, high-priced kind from the household section of the supermarket, and (3) a wire cool

Health and fertility benefits of Chocolate Chip Cookies

Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity.

Ingredients

1 c. softened butter (don't toss the wrappers)
1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1 c. old-fashioned or rolled oats
1/2 c. Grape-Nuts cereal
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 c. brown sugar
3/4 c. granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 bag dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees (if you want them really crispy, jack up the oven to 400 degrees). Use the butter wrappers to grease 2 cookie sheets. Combine the flour, oats, cereal, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
In a second, large bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Gradually stir flour mixture into the butter-sugar mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop batter by rounded tablespoons, not teaspoons (I like to use a small ice cream scoop), about 2 inches apart onto prepared pans. Bake until light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Use a spatula to remove cookies to a wire rack to cool.
