How to Make Grandma Kiecker Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon baking soda in 2 tablespoons of hot water.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, alternating with the dissolved baking soda mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans), and 2 cups chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight).
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
