Ingredients

3 cups uncooked quick-cooking oats

2 cups firmly packed brown sugar

1 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened

2 large Land O Lakes® Eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda

¹/₂ teaspoon salt

1 ¹/₂ cups all-purpose flour

How to make

STEP 1

Heat oven to 375°F.
STEP 2

Combine all ingredients except flour in bowl. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Stir in flour until well mixed.
STEP 3

Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake 8-12 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Let stand 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet.

Chocolate Drizzled Oatmeal Cookies

Prepare and bake cookies as directed above. Melt 1/2 cup real semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon shortening. Drizzle mixture over cooled cookies.

Tip #1

Stir in 1 cup of one of the following ingredients: mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, raisins, chopped mixed dried fruit, sweetened flaked coconut or chopped pecans. Bake as directed above.

Tip #2

This dough is best when baked the day it is made. If dough is stored in the refrigerator, the oats absorb liquid which causes the cookies to be dry.

Tip #3

Be sure to use quick-cooking oats for this recipe, not old-fashioned oats. They are not interchangeable in this recipe and will yield different results.
