As much as I like eating cookies, I'm not keen on making them. For me, the simpler the cookie recipe the better. This one is from Edna Stabler's cookbook Food that Really Shmecks. They're very simple cookies and pretty schmecky too.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup flour (I used whole wheat)
- 2 1/2 cups of oatmeal
- 1 cup of margarine ( or 1/2 cup soft butter, 1/2 cup margarine)
- 1 cup of brown sugar (or 1/2 cup brown, 1/2 cup white)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
Mix everything together well in a large bowl. Roll small balls of dough and place them on parchment lined cookie sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. (These cookies spread while baking). Flatten the balls of dough slightly with the tines of a fork. Pop into the oven and bake for about 12 minutes. ( I left mine in the oven slightly too long). Place the warm cookies on a wire rack to cool.
