I have been making these cookies for years. I don't remember where I got the recipe from originally but it's a Christmas cookie tray staple in our house. It's my son's favorite and he has been known to eat the whole batch at one sitting! Ingredients:
1 cup butter |
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 1/2 cups flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
3/4 cup oats |
1 tablespoon vanilla |
3/4 cup walnuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 300ยบ.
2. Beat butter until creamy.
3. Sift together 3/4 cup confectioner's sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
4. Gradually add to butter. Blend well.
5. Stir in oats. Blend in vanilla and nuts.
6. Mix well about 5 minutes.
7. Shape to form small balls.
8. Place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 25 minutes. Remove from sheets.
9. While hot sprinkle with 1/2 remaining sugar. Cool and sprinkle again.
