Instructions

Ingredients 1 cup all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 cup margarine (or 1/2 cup oil - makes mixture very sticky) 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup white sugar 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 1/4 cups rolled oats 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips ( I added 1/4 choc chips & 1/4 raisins) Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, brown sugar and white sugar. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients using a wooden spoon. Mix in the oats and chocolate chips. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheets, leaving 2 inches between cookies. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
