2 c. brown sugar
6 c. oatmeal
3 c. flour
3 c. butter
1 tbsp. baking soda

Put all of this in a huge bowl and mash, knead, squeeze all the above. Form into small balls, midway between a filbert and English walnut size on an ungreased cookie sheet. Butter the bottom of a small glass, dip it in granulated sugar and mash the ball flat (very thin). Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. (This makes a ton of cookies, so I usually only make half a recipe.)
