Categories     Dessert

Time 27m

Yield 30 cookies, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups flour, pastry
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups quick oats
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup sugar, brown, dark
1/2 cup butter, soft, melted
1/2 cup shortening, melted (I use Crisco)
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2-3/4 cup jam (Raspberry, Strawberry, Apricot, Blueberry, Date)
1/2-1 cup walnuts, ground (optional)

Steps:

  • To make the sour milk, mix the milk and lemon juice together in a small bowl and set aside until needed.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl add the flour, baking soda, salt, oats, cinnamon and brown sugar together.
  • Next add the melted butter and shortening, mixing lightly.
  • Lastly, slowly add in the sour milk, making sure to mix well.
  • Chill the dough for 1/2 hour.
  • Then on a lightly floured board, roll to 1/4 inch thick.
  • Cut the dough using a 2" round cookie cutter. Make sure to have an even number of cookie rounds.
  • Place a spoonful of jam in the center of the cookie, then top with another cookie.
  • Make sure to lightly press the edges together.
  • Roll the cookie edges in the ground nuts.
  • Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 10 - 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • For chewier cookies, use old-fashioned oats. Quick oats will make the cookies softer.
  • To make the cookies more colorful, use a variety of jelly bean colors.
  • If you don't have any jelly beans, you can use chocolate chips, raisins, or chopped nuts instead.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, as this will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before enjoying.

Conclusion:

These oatmeal and jelly bean cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are chewy, flavorful, and colorful, and they are sure to be a hit with people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these cookies a try.
