Oatmeal Cookie Bars
Christmas cookie freezing continues. Today's criteria were: must be a bar cookie, oatmeal preferred because I was given a huge canister, no nuts because Gerwe doesn't eat nuts, and since I haven't made anything chocolate, chocolate would be nice. I used dark, because that's what I like.
When Anna from Cookie Madness made these, she chopped up some purloined Halloween candy to go on top. Since I don't have a small child to steal from, mine are naked. I tend not to mix a lot of flavors anyway. Several years ago, Eric and I were discussing "mix-ins" with Amy Miller (she's remarried now, but I can't think of her new last name) and I told her I'm boring, I like plain flavors. "No, you're not!" she insisted. "You're a purist!" That sounds better.
Back to cookies. Somehow I missed the "and floured" part of the "greased and floured" instructions. And missed the pan size swap, so my whole recipe went into an 8x8 pan. Actually, I'm glad, because they didn't end up being too thick at all. They could use a little salt.

Wow Amy, those look yummy! I agree with you...purist is the way. Each time I've tried recipes calling for all sorts of mix-ins it just turns out to be a schizo-mouth experience.
Hi Honey, I'm home!
Just kidding....but we are back. Thanks for looking at my poor, lonely blog while I was away.

Fantastic walk-through. I appreciate this post.
Organic Brown Basmati Rice is a whole grain food, with only the inedible outer hull of the organic rice kernel removed, retaining the bran and germ and thus its many nutrients.
