Indoor Boredom Busters
A Family Show (Oatmeal Crispies)

Oatmeal Crispies; if you want, you can cut the sugar in half and substitute about ¼ cup of wheat germ for ¼ cup of the flour. They are more nutritious made this way. Though they’ll taste better with all the sugar.

    Preheat the oven to 350.
    1 c. melted margarine
    1 c. brown sugar
    1 c. white sugar
    2 eggs, well beaten
    1 t. vanilla
    3-½ c. flour
    1 t. salt
    1 t. soda
    3 c. quick-cooking oats
    (we have used regular oats too)

Mix together melted margarine and sugar; add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Add sifted dry ingredients. Add oatmeal (and nuts if desired). Mix well. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets and criss-cross with a fork dipped into flour.

    Bake at 350 for ten minutes
    Makes about 5 dozen cookies
