By PamCallan

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar

• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 cups oatmeal

Preparation

Step 1

Mix cream, sugar, and shortening, then add vanilla.
Put baking soda in sour milk, add to cream mixture.
Add dry ingredients (oatmeal last).

Roll to about 1/3" in thickness (will double height from baking.)
Bake at 375 degrees until slightly browned.
(May need 350 degree depending on your baking sheets)
