Mabel’s Oatmeal Crispies – or Not So Crispies
When I was growing up, our go-to cookie recipe came from my paternal grandmother. We called them Oatmeal Crispies. Since I don’t like crispy cookies, I tweaked them a bit and cook them a little shorter time so they can now be fairly called Oatmeal Not-So-Crispies. I tried them again this week for the first time in a long time and wanted to share them with you.
