Kelly Fields's Haystack Cookies image

I toasted the rolled oats called for in Ms. Fields's recipe, just to get a little more texture out of them. Make sure the mixture is hot when you drop the cookies or the texture will be too crumbly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and hard. Maybe I didn't measure the ingredients correctly.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I used almond butter instead. The cookies were still delicious.
