Oatmeal Lace Cookies

1 cup uncooked Quick Oats

1 cup sugar

1 stick melted margarine

2 heaping Tablespoons flour

1/2 teaspoon slat

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1 beaten egg

1 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract (Mimi prefers almond)

Melt shortening in pan.  Remove to bowl.  Add all rest of ingredients.  Drop by 1/2 teaspoon on aluminum foil laid on cookie sheets, 4 ” apart.  Do just this – they spread out.  325 degrees for 10-12 minutes.  Cool before removing from foil (5 minutes).  Don’t grease the foil.

Editors note…. THEY DO SPREAD OUT.  My first batch was like one big cooky (cookie)!!
