This is an amazing new taste of oatmeal cookies, passed down my step-great-grandmother. Her family made lots of recipes, but this is my favorite! Also, the cookies usually taste the best if you let them out overnight before eating. —jack112

Although not in the ingredient list, I added 1 t of baking soda. It is listed in the instructions, but not the quantity.
