½ pound butter (2 sticks), at room temperature

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup sugar

2 eggs, beaten

1 tsp vanilla

1½ cups all-purpose flour

½ cup wheat germ, Kretschmer Original Toasted recommended

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

3 cup quick 1-minute oats

Cream together butter and sugars.  Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Stir together the flour, wheat germ, salt, and soda. Add to butter-sugar; mix well. Add oats. Separate dough into 3 equal size logs. Wrap in waxed paper and chill several hours or overnight.
