I have been playing with this recipe forever and I think I finally got the result that I want so I figured I would post it while I knew what got me there. It is a variation on an orginal recipe. The cookies are on the thin side and chewy and so so good. :o) Ingredients:
1 cup shortening |
1 cup brown sugar |
1 cup white sugar |
2 eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
2 tablespoons water |
1 1/2 cups flour |
3 cups oats |
Directions:
1. preheat oven to 350 and lightly grease cookie sheet
2. mix shortening, brown and white sugars
3. add eggs, vanilla, salt, soda and water and mix well
4. depending on my mood I add cinnamon here, about 1-2 tsp.
5. mix in flour.
6. add oats and mix some more
7. bake at 350 for 12 mins (check at 10) and spray pan between batches to prevent sticking.
8. you can reduce the amount of vanilla depending on your taste, I tend to like a little more.
9. add in chocolate chips for really yummy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and/or nuts. These are thin enough that adding in whatever sound good to you at the moment works well.
