    Easy But Fancy Cookies


    Source of Recipe

    Recipe Introduction


    "These cookies taste like so much more than the sum of the ingredients. Something about the oats and powdered sugar combination make them mouth-wateringly tender and crispy. Make a few batches and store them in your fridge to whip out for last-minute guests."

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup butter, softened (NO substitutes)
    1 cup powdered sugar
    dash salt
    1 tsp. vanilla
    1-1/4 cups flour
    1 cup quick cooking oatmeal
    Chocolate Star Candies

    Recipe



    In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar and add vanilla. Stir in flour and oats. Shape dough into 2 rolls, each 1-1/2" in diameter. Wrap well in waxed paper, twisting the ends to seal. Chill well, at least 2 hours, before baking.

    When ready to bake, cut dough into 1/4" slices and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Top each with a chocolate star. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove to racks to cool. 48 cookies

    You can freeze this dough, unbaked, for up to 2 months. Just slice and bake right out of the freezer, adding a few minutes to the baking time.
