This was another of those treats that only showed up at Christmas :) I liked these. Very plain and dry so I could dunk them in a glass of milk. Now I like them with a hot chocolate or cup of tea.

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 c butter
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 c flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 c rolled oats

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 325F Cream butter, add sugar and vanilla and mix.
  • 2. Sift and add flour, soda and salt.
  • 3. Mix in rolled oats last
  • 4. Form into two narrow rolls (in waxed paper) and place in the refrigerator to chill for a couple of hours.
  • 5. Unroll the dough and slice fairly thick cookies. About 3/4". Bake on lightly greased cookie sheet for 30 minutes or less, depending on your oven. Finished cookies are very lightly browned.

Tips:

  • Use rolled oats. Steel-cut oats will not work in this recipe as they are too coarse.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal shortbread cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and they can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or with add-ins like chocolate chips or nuts, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
