     Title: CRUNCHY OATMEAL COOKIES
Categories: Biscuits, Cookies
     Yield: 1 servings

     3 c  Uncooked Quick Oats
     1 c  All-purpose flour
     1 ts Baking soda
   1/2 ts Salt (optional)
     1 c  Packed brown sugar
   1/2 c  White granulated sugar
   3/4 c  Shortening
     1    Egg
     1 ts Vanilla extract
   1/4 c  Molasses

 raisins, nuts, chocolate chips, birdseed, etc.

 Preheat oven to 350 F

 Mix dry ingredients.  Cream together sugars, shortening, vanilla, molasses.
 Mix in dry ingredients until mixed.  Add "extras" -- raisins, nuts, chips,
 etc. (I like pecans and chocolate chips). Roll tablespoons of the batter
 into little balls (the molasses will make a mess out of your hands -- I
 have to wash them a few times) about 3/4" or 1" in diameter; place on a
 greased cookie sheet. Press them down with your fingers to flatten them,
 and put them in the oven for 11-13 minutes. If you bake them at a bit lower
 than 350 you can do it longer and they get more crispy. Remove from oven
 and let sit for a minute or two so they don't fall apart when you cool them
 on a wire rack.

 Enjoy!
