Ingredients
- ¾ cup sifted flour
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup softened margarine
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup sugar
- ¼ cup walnuts
- 1 tbsp orange rind
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cup quick cooking oatmeal
- 2 eggs
Preparation
- Grease cookie sheet, sit together dry ingredients.
- Beat butter and sugars together in a large bowl until they become light and fluffy.
- Add eggs and blend on high for a minute.
- Now add vanilla and mix well until blended.
- Stir in flour mixture until well moistened.
- Stir in oatmeal, nuts and orange rind.
- Dough will be sticky and soft.
- Refrigerate for 30-60 Min. Don’t keep the dough in refrigerator more than 1 hour as Oats will absorb all the moisture and cookies will not expand then you bake.
- Roll dough in to balls and place 2 inch apart.
- Bake at 350 F for 10-12 min until golden browned. Don’t be worried if cookies look under-baked, they will set as they cool.
