LEARN ABOUT IT

We have all heard about the lady who asked for a recipe and she was told it was two fifty and she thought it was $2.50 and when she got her credit card bill she was charged $250.

Well this recipe below is supposedly from that version of a recipe.  The lady was trying to get publicity in stating she was trying to get revenge against Neiman Marcus.  It gave her a memorable story and she could profit from it.

This is shockingly close to my Grandmother’s recipe which is over 90 years old as passed down.

NEIMAN-MARCUS COOKIES (Recipe may be halved)

2 cups butter
24 oz.chocolate chips
4 cups flour
2 cups brown sugar
2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
2 cups sugar
1 8 oz. Hershey Bar (grated)
5 cups blended oatmeal
4 eggs
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. vanilla
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)

Measure oatmeal, and blend in a blender to a fine powder.
Cream the butter and both sugars.
Add eggs and vanilla, mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and soda.
Add chocolate chips, Hershey Bar, and nuts.
Roll into balls, and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees. Makes 112 cookies.

Try this as it is from that supposed recipe.
