Lacy Oatmeal Cookies

adishtopassadmin

This recipe comes from the Mrs. Fields Best Cookie Book Ever, so you know they’re good! They’re not like what you think of when you think “oatmeal cookies”.

You could end up with one really big cookie (which may or may not be a bad thing…)! Contributed by Rachel and Brendan Ingredients: 1 cup quick oats 1/4 cup all purpose flour 1/2 tsp salt 1 1/2 tsp baking powder … Continue reading Lacy Oatmeal Cookies
