Oatmeal cookies with Cocobel chips

This is a standard oatmeal cookie, from the Mom's Best old fashioned oats box. You can make it your own with raisins, special chocolate chips, nuts, chia or flaxseed.

Brown sugar, one cup
Butter, four ounces or one stick
Egg, one large
Salt, half teaspoon
Flour, 3/4 cup
Baking powder, half teaspoon
Old-fashioned oats, two cups
Cocobel chips, generous half cup

Cream sugar and butter (I use a spoon or fork to mix the sugar and butter.)
Beat in the egg.

Mix in flour, salt and baking powder. Add oats, nuts, chocolate chips.
Drop by tablespoons or teaspoons on ungreased baking sheets. Make sure they are wide enough apart not to run into each other.

Bake at 350F for 12-15 minutes. Allow to cool enough to use a spatula to remove from the sheets.

If the cookies run together in baking, just cut them apart before they cool completely.
