Today is Oatmeal Cookie Bake Day

Jack Frost had everything outdoors covered this A M and the house is cold so that's when she bakes, maybe just to warm the kitchen. These are made using a hand written recipe from 50 years ago. There's no store bought cookies that will ever match these.

Raisins?

Will she share her recipe?
Sure recipes are available, but i was just informed it was modified just a little and i would be surprised if she didn't.


No raisins, but a few chocolate chips, and pecans to enhance the oatmeal.

OK, these are the ingredients for this batch but that's subject to change with every batch from her kitchen. She said you guys will know what to mix, soften first etc. add last and bake til done at what temp.

Senior,
Those are gourmet with coconut an pecans. Daughter already left the store so I’ll have to wait to buy ingredients. I’ll let you know
Eating the raw CC oatmeal cookie dough from the refrigerator before mom could cook them was our version of no bake. And there one had to be quick.

I'm not certain whether it was the pizza or the cookies but i sure hope there's no shortage of Rolaids.

Be careful how you phrase that. You didn’t need Rolaids because of the cookies and pizza......it’s because they were so good you ate too much

Change the Chocolate chips to Butterscotch chips instead, and you have my favorite "Oatmeal Scotchies".

Best eaten right from the oven, still warm, and goes down so good, with a glass of whole milk.

Not the store bought stuff, WHOLE milk.

I'll mention the Butterscotch to the wife for the next batch but i ain't going back to milking a 7 gallon/day Holstein to get fresh whole milk no matter how good it was.:surprise:

Now that is a COW! I don't know if I could handle fresh milk now days. Back when I was a kid, that is all we had and I loved it. But, if the cow got into wild onions we just ate a bit of onion and the onion taste was gone. lol Bitter weed was another story, no way to drink that. I now realize that the raw milk tastes like the cows breath.

I know about the Rolaids, I smoked a rack of St Louis ribs and had the left overs last night.

Doing a little calculating. She said that recipe made about 72 cookies, so eating 2 / day i can't get a new batch with the Butterscotch chips for 36 days so i'm gonna step it up to 3 cookies / day.

I'd stack 5-6 in a tall glass, and fill it with milk, let them soak a little, and stir it up with a long spoon, and eat it right out of the glass.

Pecan shortbreads, are great that way also.:devil3:

Senior, who eats 2 cookies a day? Daughter said last night to tell you how much she loves these. After she baked them Sunday there were 30 left.

We’re all or nothing gals.

Being we were out of those home baked - -scones-short cake thingies - - or whatever those were called, I got a NOT SO BRIGHT idea to warm a couple of those cookies from the freezer, pop in a bowl and add ice cream and strawberries. YUCK :vs_mad:
