Special Edition~Oatmeal Cookies

This is a very rare Special Edition. A friend of mine recently posted about a Oatmeal Cookie recipe from, AWAKE! 1970 8/8. It is no longer accessible digitally and can only be found in hard copies of the magazine that people may or may not have access to.

I am referencing where it came from, and only putting in a short blurb about it. Recipes themselves can not be copy righted, and even at that, this is a pretty lax recipe as far as ingredient listing and how to make them. Since I didn't copy the entire article, only one paragraph, and mainly it is of the recipe, and recipes again can not be copy righted, under current laws, and I did list where the quote comes from, I am pretty sure it is legal to share. ;) And I don't want to lose it myself!

I thought this could be a fun home economics, math, science, and what have you lesson. And yet, once again proves the very vast education we receive from the Faithful and Discreet Slave through our publications.

"Many are also the uses to which oatmeal can be put in baking. Oatmeal cookies are as delectable as they are nourishing. For making them without flour take four cups of oatmeal, two cups of brown sugar, one cup of oil. Mix and leave it for eight hours. Then add two well-beaten eggs, one-half teaspoon salt, one teaspoon almond extract and raisins and nuts if desired. Bake in moderately hot oven for 15 minutes. Let cool before removing from pan. Result? As tasty, nourishing and wholesome a cookie as you could wish for."~AWAKE! 1970 8/8
