Oh my gosh...almost fell out of my chair when I saw this cookie! I have a very similar recipe that has been in my husband's family forever. His grandma, who died at age 93 in 1994 (so you can see how far back this recipe goes in the family) had made this cookie it seems like forever. Our kids, too, always loved them and Grandma always had a cookie jar full of them when we visited. I got the recipe from her a long time ago and used to make them all the time. We just called them "Grandma Connell Cookies". Her recipe did not have oatmeal in it though. Oh how the memories came flooding back when I saw this recipe!
