IRISH LACE COOKIES

Yield Makes about 40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

Steps:

  • In a bowl cream the butter with the brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy and beat in the flour, the milk, and the vanilla. Stir in the oats, drop rounded teaspoons of the dough about 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets, and bake the cookies in batches in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are golden. Let the cookies stand on the sheets for 1 minute, or until they are just firm enough to be moved with a metal spatula. (If desired, turn the cookies upside down on the sheets and, working quickly, roll them into cylinders on the sheets. If the cookies become too hard to roll, return them to the oven for a few seconds and let them soften.) Transfer the cookies to a rack and let them cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use rolled oats. Rolled oats are the best type of oats to use for oatmeal cookies because they provide a chewy texture and a nutty flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough. Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them brown quickly and develop a crispy exterior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. Letting the cookies cool completely will help them set and prevent them from becoming soft and chewy.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make the best oatmeal cookies that are chewy, flavorful, and perfect for any occasion.
