Crispy Oatmeal Cookies
On July 31, 2006
Once these cool they have a great crunchy texture--even my personal trainer binged on the container I gave her. Since this recipe is egg-free, the raw dough is always safe for "testing" (by the tablespoon). The dry ingredients and extra add-ins are available in the bulk bins of stores like Whole Foods.
