Yacht Manufacturer: Island Packet
Ingredients: 1 1/2 C flour
1 t baking soda
1 & 3/4 sticks of butter, soft
3/4 C white sugar
3/4 C brown sugar
1 egg
1 t vanilla
1 1/2 C old fashioned oats
6 oz bittersweet or dark chocolate chips
4 oz toffee bits
1 C dried cherries chopped
Directions: Preheat oven to 350. Sift together flour and baking soda. Cream butter and sugars until fluffy. Add egg and beat on high. Add vanilla and beat. Gradually add flour mixture, beating on low, just until combined. Stir in remaining ingredients.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto non stick baking pans or parchment paper. (I like to form balls and flatten them slightly.) Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Rotate cookie pans after 5 minutes. Allow to cool about 30 seconds before removing from pan. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
