    Recipe



    1. Heat oven to 350°F.

    2. Beat butter and brown sugar in large bowl until well blended. Add eggs, vanilla and instant coffee, if desired; beat until fluffy. Stir together oats, flour, baking soda, salt and 1 cup walnuts; gradually stir into butter mixture with spoon. (Dough will be thick.) Set aside 2 cups dough.

    1/4 cup sugar
    1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)
