Make these...

There's something about when my husband says
"(Blank) sounds good!" Suddenly I'm on this

mission, even if I don't have all of the ingredients.

I was sans brown sugar among other things when

he casually mentioned how good oatmeal cookies

sounded. So I began searching for a recipe. While

reading a yahoo answers forum, I came across

Isabella's Oatmeal Cookies.

I must warn you, these taste nothing like an 

oatmeal cookie, In fact I think they may more 

closely in some weird unexplainable way 

resemble a pecan sandie, they have no pecans

so I cant figure out where the comparison 

comes in. 

I followed the directions pretty closely other than

 the flour because I just had some random amount 

of flour, it was definitely less than what was called

 for. I also squeezed in a generous amount of agave

 nectar, due to the fact that I read without brown 

sugar, these cookies would likely be hard. I like

a soft cookie, so I decided to improvise. I 

cooked mine for 15 minutes.

Isabella's Oatmeal Cookies
1 cup butter 
1/2 cup sugar 
1 tsp vanilla 
1 1/4 cups flour
1 1/2 cups oats
Dash salt, optional
Powdered Sugar 

Cream butter and sugar until light. Mix in

 vanilla, then flour, oats and salt. Chill 

thoroughly. Shape into small balls and

 place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking 

sheet. Flatten with a fork, crisscrossing.

 Bake at 350 degrees for 12-18 minutes 

(depending on your oven). Sprinkle with

 Powdered Sugar

Enjoy! These are delish!

It's almost Friday!
