Irish Oatmeal Cookies by Nancy Lee Badger

HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY
Here is a recipe for IRISH Oatmeal Cookies (okay, they are not strictly Irish, but when you use Irish oatmeal, they are Irish)
1 stick + 6 Tablespoons butter, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar (I use Splenda Brown Sugar)
1/2 cup sugar (I use Splenda)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
My favorite sugar-free breakfast food
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
3 cups uncooked oatmeal, quick or old fashioned (I suggest McCann's, but not the instant packets you see here)
I also add about 1 cup raisins (optional but yummy)
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat butter and sugars on medium until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla, and beat well. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl and mix well. Add to the egg and sugar mixture. Mix well. Add oatmeal and raisins. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons on ungreased or parchment paper-covered cookie sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Cool 1 minute then remove to a wire rack. Cool and enjoy your St. Patrick's day treat!

Happy St. Patrick's Day
Coming soon!
