This was one of our favorite cookie recipes when growing up. When my brothers and I were small, we would 'help' my Mom make these cookies. She would dump the ingredients into a large bowl, and then with well-washed hands, the three of us would 'get our aggression or excess energy out' by squishing and mixing the dough until it was well combined. We would then take turns with which of us would scoop each cookie, which would then roll it into a ball, and finally, who got to smash it with a glass.
1 Cup Butter, softened
1 Cup Flour
2 Cups Old Fashioned Oats
1 Cup Packed Brown Sugar
1 tsp Baking Soda
dash salt
2 tsp vanilla
INSTRUCTIONS
1: Put all ingredients into a bowl.
2: Punch, pound, mix, mash...the more the better! Make sure all ingredients are incorporated evenly.
3: Scoop into 1-inch balls and place on a non-greased cookie sheet. Place 2 inches apart. Use the bottom of a glass to smash cookies flat.
4: Bake 10 minutes in 350 degree oven. Allow to cool completely before removing from tray (they will fall apart if not cool or if overcooked)
