Oatmeal Honey Cookies
Posted by: Lauralea Friesen
NEARLY like the original "Honey Oatmeal Cookies" recipe
in Company's Coming Cookies...
I reduced the margarine, replaced sugar with Splenda, increased the
oats, decreased the flour and replaced the white with whole wheat. Oh,
and I added a little baking powder. They're quite good. Last time I
made them I used part raisins and part chocolate chips, which was
nice. If you use "mini" chocolate chips you get the essence
of a chocolate chip cookie without quite as much chocolate. Very
yummy, even if they are sort of good for you.
1/2 cup (125 ml) hard margarine, softened
1/2 cup (125 ml) Splenda, artificial sweetener
1/2 cup (125 ml) creamed honey
1 egg
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla
2 1/4 cups (550 ml) Roger's Porridge Oats
1 cup (250 ml) whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon (5 ml) baking soda
1 teaspoon (5 ml) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon (2 ml) salt
1 cup (250 ml) raisins
Cream butter, Splenda and honey together well. Beat in egg and
vanilla.
Add remaining ingredients. Mix well. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased
baking sheet. Shape into balls, and press lightly with a fork. Bake at
350*F. for about 10 minutes.
Makes about 3 dozen.
