Oatmeal Cookies

[Earthy]

I just made the most delicious Oatmeal & Cherry cookies ever! I love oatmeal cookies though plain or otherwise:)

[JenniBear]

chewy or crunchy oatmeal cookies??!!

chewy are my favorite here....

[Earthy]

Chewy!!!

I don't nomally like cruncy cookies. On little trick...always take the cookies out right when the edges just begin to turn brown but not yet. That way they are soft and chewy. My cookies are hardly ever in for the length of time stated on the recipe.

[ABall]

aren't you going to share the recipe?

[KrisRV]

I was thinking the same thing, aren't you going to share with us...

[Earthy]

Oh, LOL. Sorry, I was napping! LOLOL I'll put it up.

[KrisRV]

[Earthy]

[Earthy]

[KrisRV]

[Jennifer R]

Now Kris, no one on here would do such a thing!!

[Earthy]

Ok ladies! Stop drawing attention to this thread! :oops:

[Jennifer R]

But Nellie, I thought maybe everyone would like your recipe for the cookies!:eek:

[KrisRV]

Jennifer no one I would know would do it...
I just wanted the recipe like you...

[Earthy]

Stop it! Don't post any more here! It has enough attention, I am going to have to go into hiding!

[KrisRV]

oh sweetie, you can't hide to far, we know where you are... love you girl

[dalynnrmc]

So has anyone made these cookies yet???

Yep, I'm baa-aack! ;) hehehe

[Jennifer R]

DaLynn, we are just a little bit leary of making them right now!

Nelllie, Kris will find you if no one else can! We have to keep this thread going because someone needs to actually try your recipe!

[Jennifer R]

Btw, one of my favorite oatmeal cookies are the ones made with the butterscotch morsels. With my oldest dd out of the house and my ds halfway there I don't make things like that as often.

[dalynnrmc]

heh...

Well, if I have the stuff to do them I'll try them this weekend. ;) If I end up... with child as Nellie said ;) then I'll tell dh to blame it on her cookies. :lol:

[KrisRV]

Yes, I see you hit the 2,000 mark but why wouldn't you answer my question when is the little one due.

[Jennifer R]

Hey Kris, I noticed that her reply to your comment about making babies or cookies was "yes". Could that be the answer to both?!LOL!

[KrisRV]

Jennifer R, that is what I was wondering too.

[Jennifer R]

Nellie, what's up?! Are you going to answer or are you ignoring this not dead thread?!

[KrisRV]

Jennifer I think she is trying to ingore us but it's hard isn't it. maybe if she doesn't answer this soon we should start a new thread...

Congrats. Nellie on the new little one.

[Jennifer R]

Sounds good to me Kris! I notice she changed the subject on her last post on this thread!

[KrisRV]

yea, she did we will give her a little awhile like a day or so and nothing we will start something.

[Jennifer R]

Hey Kris, do you know anything about some red nail polish?!

[KrisRV]

yea Jennifer we are going to party with it want to come

[Jennifer R]

Sure! I missed the party on the other thread. I thought maybe the comment about the polish would bring Nellie out but I guess it didn't work!

[KrisRV]

nope she's ingore us... Jennifer I don't know why?

[Earthy]

This thread is old!

[ABall]

I just made some:

1 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
dash cinnamon
1 t. vanilla (just poured it in)
1 t. salt
1 t. baking powder
2 eggs
2 cups sugar (I do the scoop from the bag method)
1 1/3 cup oat meal
1 bag chocolate chips

Used mixer to mix everything (sugar and shortening first) then everything else and hand stirred choc. chips. (would love to add walnuts but kids don't like them)

bake 350 for about 9-11 minutes depending on how big they are and how crunchy you like them.

[KrisRV]

I not making those things... they cause babies, don't they Nellie

[Jennifer R]

Maybe Amy's recipe is safe!

[KrisRV]

I hope it is, but I will have to check with her first.. Nellie told me her was good too and look what happen to her.

[ABall]

No Babies In My Recipe!

[KrisRV]

great then I will try it....
