Indulge your sweet cravings with our delectable duo of oatmeal cookies - a classic and a delightful twist. Our first recipe presents the timeless combination of oats, whole wheat flour, and maple syrup, resulting in a crispy exterior and a chewy, tender interior. The subtle sweetness of maple syrup perfectly complements the nutty flavor of oats, creating a harmonious balance.
For those seeking a richer, more robust flavor profile, our second recipe introduces the addition of molasses. This dark, viscous syrup lends a deep caramel-like sweetness and a slight hint of bitterness, creating a complex and sophisticated cookie. The molasses adds an extra layer of chewiness and a beautiful golden-brown hue, making these cookies truly irresistible.
Both recipes offer a symphony of textures and flavors, catering to cookie enthusiasts of all preferences. Whether you prefer the classic simplicity of maple syrup or the rich indulgence of molasses, these oatmeal cookies promise a delightful experience with every bite.

WWII OATMEAL MOLASSES COOKIES
This was my Grandmother's recipe from the 1940's. These cookies use molasses in place of brown sugar, which was one of the items rationed during the war (and harder to get than white sugar, they tell me). To me they're better than regular oatmeal cookies!

Tips:
- Use old-fashioned oats. Quick-cooking oats will make your cookies too soft and mushy.
- Toast the oats before using them. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crispy in the cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to firm up.
