These crispy oatmeal cookies may keep everyone guessing about the ingredients. The crispiness comes from toasted rice cereal instead of nuts and the sweetness comes from brown sugar and raisins.
How to Make It
Step 1
Cream shortening in a large mixing bowl; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add eggs, beating well.
Step 2
Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt in a medium mixing bowl; add to creamed mixture, stirring well. Stir in remaining ingredients; mix well.
Step 3
Shape into 1-inch balls; place 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheets. Bake at 350° for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets, and cool on wire racks.

Made a half batch. A light, sweet oatmeal cookie. When using raisins it helps to toss them with 1-2T of flour to break up the sticky clusters. I chose to roll the dough balls in cinnamon sugar since I prefer cinnamon in my oatmeal cookies. Cranberries or no fruit would work fine. Or add some white, butterscotch or cinnamon chips. Experimenting is the fun part of cooking.

I don't really care for raisins-wonder how this would work with dried cranberries? Or maybe just omit the raisins? They sound so good and make a big batch.

Can't wait to try these. Because of stomach problems I can't eat nuts
