Help! I just moved and I lost my favorite recipe. I’m trying to impress this girl, but I can’t, for the life of me, remember the exact recipe. A google search has listed more recipes that I can shake a stick at, but I have no idea which it is, or if it’s even good.
Here’s what I remember:
1 1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup(?) buttermilk
Those were the only two ingredients which made it stand out. They were really soft cookies, but had a firm texture to it (does that make sense?) They felt solid-ish, but once you bit into them, they were really soft and chewy.
Well, I can’t tell exactly how these taste, or the texture, but t\here are to recipes for cookies. Neither are chocolate chip cookies. However, simply add chips to the recipe, not add raisins, and viola!

OATMEAL DROP COOKIES
1 1/2 cups Flour; 1/4 tsp. Salt; 1 tsp. Baking Soda; 1 tsp. Cinnamon; 1/2 cup Shortening; 1 cup Sugar; 1 Egg; 1 1/2 cups Oatmeal; 2/3 cup Buttermilk; 1/2 cup Chopped Nuts; 1 cup Raisins (plumped)
Cream shortening and sugar together. Add egg and mix well. Sift dry ingredients and add to mixture alternately with buttermilk. Stir in oatmeal, raisins and nuts. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 until done.

You smear it on your skin, and it makes you shorter.
But really, when I think shortening, I think Crisco, however,
Oh, and judging from one of my current threads, cookies are simply not a taboo subject. Perhaps “What’s up with this board” is that people want to give a proper answer. However, in order to give a proper answer, one must first try the recipe and see if it qualifies as “feeling solid-ish, but once you bit into them, they were really soft and chewy.” I know I didn’t. Perhaps as we are speaking, someone is preparing the recipe to see if it qualifies. Have you tried?
