My Nana died before I was born, so I never got to taste her cookies, but I'm so excited to make a recipe that she made. :)
Mix:
1 Cup Margerine or Shortening
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1 Tsp. Vanilla
Add:
1 1/2 Cups Flour
1 Tsp. Baking Soda
1 Tsp. Salt
3 Cups Quick Oats
You can add chocolate chips, raisins or both. I strongly dislike raisins, but I added chopped walnuts! YUM!!!!
Bake at 350* for 10 minutes. Her recipe doesn't specify a size for the ball of dough. I used a small ice cream scoop to scoop the dough. It works really well and keeps the cookies round and somewhat uniform. One of these days, I will invest in a smaller scoop. I also tried a dozen in my bar pan. Those are in the oven now. I hope they turn out.
