Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons flax seed meal
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup brewers' yeast
• 1 tablespoon wheat germ
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 2 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Mix flaxseed with water in small bowl and let soak for 5 minutes.
3. Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large mixing bowl until creamy. Add egg yolks and vanilla extract; beat to incorporate. Stir flax seed mixture into the butter mixture.
4. Mix flour, brewer's yeast, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar in a separate bowl; add to butter mixture and stir until just combined. Fold oats and chocolate chips into the dough.
5. Roll dough into walnut-sized balls and place 2 inches apart onto a baking sheet.
