#86 Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

My friend C. MacBride always brought these cookies along to camping trips. I always looked forward to the moment when she would bring out and open the tupperware container to share these morsels of chocolatey oatmeal goodness. When I was pregnant I suddenly had a craving for these cookies so I called her up for the recipe. NowI share them with you!

• 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
• 1 ½ cups brown sugar, packed
• 2 eggs, beaten
