Oatmeal Icebox Cookies image

This recipe is one of my mother's refrigerator cookies that she made when I was little. The old fashioned sugar cookies that you have on your home page is exactly what mom used to make. They are wonderfully soft and a touch of nutmeg in them. You could not believe how many memories it brings back to me. This is another memory to enclose to you. This is a sandwich type cookie spread with jam in the center.

These cookies were a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter or oil. The flavor was good though.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, they were easy to make and had a nice texture.

Delicious! These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oatmeal. They are soft and chewy with a nice crispy edge. I added a little extra cinnamon and nutmeg for some extra flavor.

These oatmeal icebox cookies were a hit with my family! They were easy to make and had a delicious, chewy texture. I added some raisins and chopped walnuts for extra flavor and they were perfect. Will definitely be making these again!
