Lace oatmeal cranberry and almond cookies

Servings: 1 dozen

As a child I never ate oatmeal cookies and the first time I made them was for a gift to a friend. It was then that I fell in love with the deliciousness of oatmeal cookies.

 

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

Mix the butter and the sugar together. You can use your hands to cream it if you don’t have a kitchen aid mixer.

Next use a spatula or your mixer and add in the eggs and vanilla.

Once the egg and vanilla is mixed in well add the oatmeal packets, flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda.

Mix everything well.

Last fold in the cranberries, almonds and white chocolate chips (if you desire).

Lightly roll the cookies into 2” balls make sure to generously space them out, as they will spread a lot.

Bake the cookies for 17 minutes.

Place on a baking rack and let them cool.
