Now my grandmother could attest to this, as well as my parents, and now my family, that I am a oatmeal cookie junkie. Not just any oatmeal cookie, but my grandmother’s recipe. I will make note that my grandma obviously makes them better than I do, granted they stem from the same recipe, however some things are just too good when you always got them from your grandma.
First, combine:
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
Then add to the above:
- 1 cup of margarine
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 1 cup of white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Then, the final ingredient:
- 3 cups of oats
Ok, not that they are cooled (trust me, you will want to eat these immediately), get a large glass of cold milk, and get ready to rumble.
I have been making these cookies now for over two years. The recipe yields approximately 30-40 cookies, depending on the size. These are a must make for when you are wanting a really good cookie. They come out crisp and chewy, and will most likely disappear within two days. 🙂 Enjoy.
