Lacy Oatmeal Cookies

Just typing the name of this cookie makes me start drooling at my desk. If you like anything gooey, chewy and filled with oats...then this cookie is for you! My mom has a great recipe that I feel is my duty as a food blogger to share this recipe with you. They're a great cookie for fall festivities but I've found out they're pretty much delicious for any occasion. Whether your going on a picnic, potluck or holiday party, take these cookies with you...sudden side effects could occur including, increased popularity and praise.




What you will need:

1 cup oats, quick cooking ones preferably

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup white sugar

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Lets Shake Boogie and Bake!

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Cover baking sheets with foil, then coat the foil with a non-stick cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, combine oats, flour, salt, and baking powder.

In a large bowl, mix cream sugar and butter until fluffy.

Beat in egg and vanilla.

Mix in the flour and oat mixture until just combined.

Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, 2 1/2 inches apart. (they spread like mad mommas so make sure you leave enough room for real)

Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges turn golden.

Cool, then peel cookies off with your fingers.

*NOTE* Be sure to re-spray baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray between batches
