White Chip Oatmeal Cookies

I tried another cookie recipe and boy am I glad I did.  These turned out simply delicious and were so easy to make.  Brad is allergic to chocolate so I wanted to find a chip cookie that used vanilla chips instead - this one not only fit the bill but tasted fabulous too.  I found the recipe on the Allrecipes website.  Hope you enjoy it as much as we all did.
