Old Fashioned Lace Oatmeal Cookies
*Perfect with a side of milk, Santa will definitely be back next year.*
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup instant oats
- 1 egg
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup butter or margarine (melted)
- 2 Tbs flour
- ½ tsp vanilla
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- Walnuts (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350. Combine all ingredients and stir until well blended. Batter will be very runny. Drop mixture onto pan, each about the size of a small walnut. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on pan. When cooled, use the back side of a spatula to remove from pan. If too difficult to remove from pan or if harden too quickly, put back into oven for a few seconds. Cookies will be thin and very delicate. They will actually have a lace-like appearance. Other ideas include breaking them into pieces and crumbling over a bowl of vanilla ice cream or drizzle cookies with melted Hershey kisses and cool. Makes 3 dozen.
