is not the recipe forum but I wanted to share this recipe with my brug growing friends and knew you'd all see it here.
Oatmeal Lace Cookies
2c--oatmeal
2c--sugar
2 --sticks real butter melted
2--eggs
6TBS-- all purpose flour
1/2tsp-- salt
1/2tsp-- baking powder
1tsp--vanilla
Preheat oven to 350
Mix all ingredients in a mixing bowl by hand. Drop by 1/2 tsp full onto an aluminum foil lined cookie sheet.( It doesn't seem like a lot of dough but they spread out a lot.) Bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. Remove from foil.
I used 2 seperate pieces of foil and while one was baking I got the other one ready to go in. When the first one is done you just slide it off the pan and slip the other one on and into the oven. By the time the ones in the oven are done the ones you baked first are cool enough to remove from the foil.
Bet you can't eat just one!!
I know this:
Dave... i use a small ice cream scoop to drop the cookie batter for even measure and sizes of baked cookie.
thanks for the recipe. i don't bake cookies for myself, but do for nephews and nieces.
Never thought about that. Maybe even a melon baller would work well. I tried a little more batter on the first batch of these cookies and trust me you only want to use the required amount or you'll have one BIG cookie!!
i used to make these for my husband all the time he loved them. they are soo good...
I just got the recipe yesterday from someone that I work with. I also tasted them for the first time yesterday and came right home and made some. Oatmeal cookies are my favorite anyway and this is a new take on them for me so this recipe will defiantely be a keeper.
Dave... i like the ice cream scope cuz it has spring to easily spring out the batter into the cookie sheet. a melon baller, u will still need a spoon to help u take out the cookie batter off the baller. the ice cream scoop is always consistent in measurement and size of outcome of the cookie.
Oatmeal are my favorite too. Yummmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
that'll make a good dessert for when you come up with another recipe that will magically transport me down to your location and will go out and bring us back a bucket of blue crabs and and cooler of Redfish. (by the way, the recipe will need to cover crab cakes and blackened redfish too.... ) hmmmhmmm good!
David, those sound yummy. I think oatmeal cookies are my favorite as well, but I try my best to stay far away from them, because I can't stop with just one or two.
8ft,
believe it or not I live just about half a mile from the creek and a little over a mile fromt he ocean. All the blue crabs you could ever want are just down the street a little ways!! I myself do not eat them, my appetite for seafood is limited to shrimp and just a few varieties of fish.
I will eat crab if it is made into crabcakes ,but to just sit and pick it out of the shells and eat it NO WAY!! I do make an awesome crabcake though. It is one of our best sellers at work and is loaded with real lump crabmeat.
Sylvia,I made a batch of the oatmeal lace cookies night before last and they are almost gone. There is no way you can eat just one!!
That's what I figured, David. They really do sound good. I might just have to make some and try to use good judgment when it comes to eating them. Yeah, right! lol
Shrimp? No problem! I've still got my cast nets and extra 5 gal buckets. We'll get some fish meal then go down and make mud balls and wait. Start casting soon as the sun is completely down and lickety split we'll have a 5gal bucket full of shrimp the size of prawns. Oh, them were the days!
How can you limit seafood to shrimp??? LOL OMG! If I lived that close to crustaceans........
The cookies sound yummy! The girls and I will have to try them!
