1 c. oatmeal
1 c. white sugar
2 tbsp. + 1 tsp. flour (rounded)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 lb. butter, melted
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tsp. vanilla

Mix dry ingredients together and pour over melted butter. Add beaten egg and vanilla. Mix thoroughly. Drop by scant 1/2 teaspoon full on cookie sheet covered with aluminum foil. Place fairly far apart as they run together.

Bake 7 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Let cool on foil and remove by gently separating cookies and foil with fingers. Use dull side of aluminum foil for best results.
