You know, and I know, there are as many oatmeal cookie recipes in the world today as there are fields of oats.
As for me, I like a crunchy oatmeal cookie with no accessories – including raisins, chocolate chips, walnuts or whatever you might add.
Thanks to the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook, I found a no-frills oatmeal. And, with a couple of my own twists, created the No Accessory Crunchy Icon Oatmeal Cookie.
The original recipe says you’ll end with 54 cookies. Since I like large cookies, my alterations ended with 24 cookies.
