These cookies are a great make-ahead snack. I like to bake a batch on the weekend and then store them in an airtight container. They stay fresh for up to a week.

I'm not sure why these cookies are called lace cookies. They're more like crispy oatmeal cookies to me. But they're still delicious, so I'm not complaining.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, they're a nice and easy cookie recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies didn't turn out as delicate as I expected. They were a bit too thick and chewy for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oatmeal. They're also a fun and easy recipe to make with kids. My kids love helping me cut out the cookies and sprinkle them with cinnamon sugar.

I've tried many oatmeal lace cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are crispy and chewy at the same time, with a perfect balance of flavors. They're also incredibly easy to make, which is a huge plus.

These cookies are absolutely divine! The delicate lace-like texture and the subtle sweetness make them the perfect teatime treat. I love how they melt in my mouth and leave a lingering aftertaste of oats and vanilla.
