1 1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1 1/2 c. butter, softened
3 c. old-fashioned or quick cooking rolled oats, uncooked
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
Granulated sugar

Combine brown sugar, butter, oats, baking soda and flour in a large mixing bowl. Mash, knead, squeeze and pound ingredients to make a dough.

Form dough into small balls. Put balls on ungreased baking sheets. Grease the bottom of a small glass of jar; dip into granulated sugar and use to flatten balls. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven about 15 minutes, or until done. Transfer to racks to cool. Makes about 7 dozen cookies.
