Oatmeal Cookies

By ninebirch

Ingredients

• 1 c butter
• 1 c powder sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 c sifted flour
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 c quick Quaker Oats
• 2 3oz containers of Chocolate Shots (Sprinkles) You can use colors if you wish.

Preparation

Step 1

Beat butter and sugar until
light and fluffy. Add vanilla and blend well. Mix in flour only until it is all
incorporated into the creamed mixture. Stir in oats. Shape dough into two logs,
each about 1-1/2 inches in diameter. Pour sprinkles from one jar onto a piece of
waxed paper large enough to roll up one log of dough. Roll log in the
sprinkles, pressing the sprinkles lightly into the dough and covering the logs
completely. Wrap the log with the waxed paper and refrigerate. Repeat the same
process with the second log of dough. Chill the logs at least three hours or
overnight.
When ready to bake, preheat
oven to 325 degrees. Using a sharp knife, slice 1/4-inch-thick rounds from the
logs. Place the cookie slices on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for about 30 minutes
at 305 degrees.
