Some people, including myself, prefer these cookies even to Chocolate Chip cookies! OATMEAL SUGAR COOKIES Cream: 1 c. shortening (2 sticks oleo/butter) 1 c. sugar 1 c. brown sugar Add: 2 eggs 1 tsp. vanilla Add dry ingredients: 1 1/2 c. flour 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. cinnamon Add: 3 c. oatmeal (quick oats) After all is well-mixed, roll dough into balls the size of walnuts; roll in sugar; bake at 350 degrees for about 8 minutes or until the edges start to brown. These are best if slightly undercooked, e.g. chewy. Sue McKinnell ...!ihnss!ihuxj!suem
