What can you say about oatmeal cookies? Who ever had a bad oatmeal cookie, no one I know. Mary would have rather eaten oatmeal cookies for breakfast rather then a bowl of oatmeal ... unlike Charlie. Oatmeal and wheat toast with butter was Charlies daily staple. Ingredients:
3/4 cup vegetable shortening |
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 egg |
1/4 cup water |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
3 cups oats, uncooked |
1 cup flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
Directions:
1. Beat together shortening, sugars, egg, water and vanilla until creamy. Add combined remaining ingredients; mix well.
2. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet.
3. Bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes.
4. For variety; add chopped nuts, raisins, chocolate chips or coconut.
