Ingredients

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
l egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup mealworm flour

Mealworm Chocolate Chip Cookies

Directions
Cream butter well, then mix in sugar, egg, vanilla, flour, salt, baking soda, chocolate chips, oats, and mealworm flour. Drop batter by the teaspoonful on a greased cookie sheet. Preheat oven and bake for 10 minutes at 375°.

Note
To make mealworm flour: Spread cleaned insects on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Set oven to 200 and dry insects for approximately 1 to 3 hours. When the insects are done, they should be fairly brittle and crush easily. Take your dried insects and put them into a blender or coffee grinder, and grind till they are about the consistency of wheat germ.
