I’m so excited to share with you my Grandma’s Award-Winning (literally, took home 1st place in her County Fair in 2007) recipe for Oatmeal Lace Cookies. I love any variation of oatmeal cookies to begin with, so I was really looking forward to trying out the “lace” type!
{Here’s what you’ll need}
- 1 cup quick oats (uncooked)
- 1 cup flower
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 cup Splenda (or 1 cup sugar)
- 3/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1 tsp. vanilla
{Directions}
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees
- Line a cookie sheet with foil, shiny side up
- Mix together oats, flour, baking powder & Splenda
- Add remaining ingredients, stirring well (note: it will have a very thick consistency)
- Drop no more than a tablespoon of dough at a time on the foil, spacing well, as they spread when baking
- Flatten dough some and bake 10-12 minutes, or until edges brown
- Remove foil with cookies on it
- At this point, if cookies stick together, cut apart with a spatula
- Cool cookies before removing from foil
- Makes about 3 dozen depending on size
As I was making the cookies, I was a little concerned because the mixture was such a thick, heavy consistency, but that’s totally normal and worth it in the end. These are some of the most delicious cookies I’ve ever had! Thanks Grandma!
seriously!!
