Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 c crisco shortening
1 c white sugar
2 c all purpose flour
2 eggs
2 c 3 minute oats
1 c pecans, in pieces
1/4 c milk
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 c raisins

Steps:

  • 1. Cream shortening and sugar together till smooth and fluffy. Add eggs. Sift dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. And oats, raisins and nuts and stir together very well.
  • 2. I use a small ice cream scoop to drop mine on to greased cookie sheets so they will cook evenly. Makes about 4 dozen depending on the size of cookie.
  • 3. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Just lightly golden brown. Don't overbake or cookies will be hard.

These oatmeal rocks were so easy to make and turned out so delicious! I used almond milk instead of regular milk and they still came out perfect.

I tried this recipe and it was a hit! The oatmeal rocks were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and the flavor was amazing. I especially loved the addition of the chocolate chips and walnuts.
