Cholesterol? .......... Ouch!

Glad you are having fun with the g. kids Marilyn.

Love Jenny  :-*

My recipe is a little different than yours, Marilyn.  I have made so many batches of these, there is no way I could count them.  I think my son could smell them even after he married and moved out of the house.  Seems he knew when to come and visit.  I have even tried leaving out the cocoa and putting in powdered malt and adding red cake coloring for Christmas.  Another batch with green cake coloring.  Run out of oats, use another dry unsugared cereal.  Really fun!  I made these when I was still in high school....uh, 40 odd years ago!!!

Those were my favorite cookie growing up.  We didn't put evaporated milk or vanilla in ours though.  I will have to look at the recipe again and compare the two by eating them and see which one is the best.  ;D

Will you share yours too, Soni?  I know that my grandkiddies love these kinds of things and I'd love to see your recipe as well.

yum yum. one of my favorites!!!
