Oatmeal Cookies
Since we've made oatmeal cookies twice in the past week it seemed perhaps I should share the recipe. I think oatmeal cookies are my favorite kind. I've never met a cookie I didn't like though.
Oatmeal Cookies
3/4 C shortening
1 C brown sugar
1/4 C water
1 t vanilla
1 C flour

Those look great! Thanks for the recipe. Oatmeal are my husband's favorite cookie!
ReplyDeleteWe love Oatmeal Raisin cookies, at least for a cookie they seem to be somewhat nutritious :) I think the cinnamon and cloves are what makes an Oatmeal cookie taste fabulous.
ReplyDeleteCertainly more nutritious than say, a sugar cookie! I actually do this sort of rationalization quite frequently. Like "Well, I used applesauce instead of shortening so these are practically like eating fruit!" (Okay, I'm not usually quite that bad.)
