Recently, I told you about a set of recipes for homemade cookie mixes that I learned about on a blog called Fake-It-Frugal. I had great success
with the Sugar Cookie version, so I decided to try out the Oatmeal Cookie
version. I mixed it up according to the recipe, but the dough was too dry. The
recipe said to refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes before scooping out onto a
cookie sheet; but, even after refrigeration, the dough was still too crumbly to
scoop. Knowing that I truly needed to
bring these cookies to my kids Sunday night Bible program at church, I had to
come up with a solution. So, I added an extra egg and the dough was exactly
like cookie dough should be.
The cookies turned out great! The kids enjoyed them, they
were simple to make, and I had all of the ingredients on hand. This recipe is a
keeper. And, having a couple of mixes made up in advance is a nice solution to
purchased pre-packaged mixes. (Yield: 18 cookies)
