Oatmeal Lace Cookies

Directions

Heat oven to 350℉ (180℃).

Finely blend in a blender or food processor the 1 cup of quick-cooking oatmeal until it is flour-like.

To this flour, add the brown sugar, egg, vanilla, salt and melted butter.

Mix well until you have a thick dark brown batter.

Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a buttered cookie sheet 2 to 3 inches apart.

The cookies will spread into large, thin circles while baking.

Bake for 12 minutes.

Remove cookies with a spatula while they are still warm.

As soon as they cool, they harden and will stick.

If that happens put them back in a warm oven for a few seconds until they are soft enough to remove.

Store when cool in a tightly covered container.
