mmmmm...more cookies!

I have been assigned cookie duty for a work birthday party on Monday. Since I had just brought chocolate chip cookies for the birthday party last Wednesday, I thought I would try the amazing cookies that Aunt Lynn had at coffee last week. They are in the 2003 Adams Tasting Bee Cookbook called Conference Cookies by Mel Hekstra but I think they would be better named...


Uncle Larry's FAVORITE Cookies

Cookie Ingredients:
1 cup oleo
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 t salt
1 t soda
1 3/4 cups flour
3 cups oatmeal

Mix butter with sugars. Mix in eggs. Add dry ingredients.
Bake 10 minutes at 350*. Frost immediately.
(I took about a 1/2 t of frosting per cookie. While still on the cookie sheet I spooned it out on top of the dozen cookies and then went back and spread it; was easy because it was all nice and melty)

6 T oleo
2 T coffee
1 t cinnamon
2 cups powdered sugar
