Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter, oil, and brown sugar until smooth. Add egg, applesauce, and vanilla; beat until blended. Beat in baking powder, soda, and salt, then flour, until smooth. Scrape side of bowl, then stir in oats and chocolate.

Bake dough right away; if allowed to sit, cookies will be dry. Drop dough by 2 tablespoon portions onto 2 lightly oiled 12x15 inch baking sheets, spacing evenly. Dip fingertips in granulated sugar, then pat cookies into 1 cm thick rounds.

Bake in a 350 degree oven until pale golden, about 10 minutes; switch pan positions after 5 minutes. Lift to racks; eat warm or cool.

Makes about 25.
