This is gluten free! But remember to make sure the oat's weren't manufactured on machines which produce other gluten products :)

When I was in elementary school, they had these cookies for lunch. They were thin as paper. I don't know how they got them off the sheet. Nevertheless they were awesome, have been a favorite of mine since a small girl.

I've been making these for 40 years now, but I use 1 cup peanut butter. We fondly refer to these as "Fart Cookies." And it's not just my family!!!!

These were amazing. I added a dash of salt before it started boiling, not sure if it made a big difference but the cookies were good

I'm a great grandmother and have made this recipe for my kids when they were at home (I can't now because they live in different states). Another taste variation is to add chow mein noodles. Use how ever many you would like. Also any nuts work.

 Brooke (North Dakota) says:
Substitute the vanilla for almond extract. Soooooooooo good. And I never put butter in my cookies and they taste amazing, just as a healthier option.

 Babette (Colorado) says:
This recipe is awesome!!!!! I cooked for 3 minutes but I think 2 1/2 would be better if you like them fudgy!!!!! I'm also going to try 2/3 cup of peanut butter next time for a little more flavor!!!!! I also put them in the refidgerator as soon as I drop them on waxed paper, and once they are firm, I put them in an air tight container with plastic wrap between each layer!!!!! They are AWESOME when kept cold!!!!!

I was looking for this recipe, since I lost the one I had. A friend introduced me to these (without peanut butter) when I was around 22. They were delicious. I am 54 now. Her brother called them Moose Turds and so that is what we always called them. I also added coconut which makes them really yummy.
