I got this recipe from a mystery fiction book called Key Lime Pie! It is really good!!!
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
21/2 cups quick oats
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Dash of cayenne pepper
11/2 cups Craisins
1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cream butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and mix until well combined. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Add Craisins, chocolate chips, and nuts, using a wooden spoon to mix (dough will be too thick for most mixers). Drop by tablespoons or use a 1-inch scoop to make dough balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet about two inches apart. Bake 6 to 9 minutes or until just browned—do not overbake. Allow to cool on pan 2 minutes before moving to cooling rack. Cookies should be crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside.
Makes 3 dozen.

Chocolate Pancakes
I made this and was a little concerned that the kids wouldn't like it since they have hit quite the picky streak but they loved it. They even liked the syrup that goes with it. I hope you enjoy!
Chocolate Pancakes
1 1/2 C. Flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
6 TBS sugar
6 TBS cocoa
1 1/4 C. warmed milk
4 TBS butter or margaine, melted
2 eggs, beaten
Mix and sift together dry ingredients. Add milk, butter, and eggs and beat until smooth. Add extra milk if the batter is too think. Cook as you do regular pancakes. Serve warm.
Syrup
2 C. sugar
1 8 oz. can evaporated milk
1 TBS butter
Boil sugar and milk, stirring constantly until all sugar is dissolved. Cook over high heat until the mixture starts to boil. Do not leave unattended, as it comes to a boil quickly. Remove from heat and add butter. Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir and enjoy.
