My mom has an incredible recipe for oatmeal cookies but the best part is the dough! I think the dough tastes even better than the cookies! It's sweeter and we all know that I love me some sugar. It's a quick and simple recipe and you'll be dipping into the bowl for bites of the dough for sure!
Oatmeal Cookies (This particular recipe is my dad's favorite)
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup lard or shortening (but I always used sticks of margarine)
1/2 cup milk
1 t. vanilla
4 cups quick oats
1 3/4 cup flour
1 t. baking soda
3/4 t. salt
Heat oven to 375. Mix brown sugar, butter, milk and vanilla. Stir in remaining ingredients.
Drop dough in 1 inch balls about 3 inches apart on an un-greased cookie sheet; flatten cookies. Bake until golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Immediately remove from cookie sheet.

I prefer to bake them for the minimum time because we like them soft inside. They may seem undercooked when you remove at 8 minutes but when they cool, they set up but are still moist inside.
Enjoy!
