Since I started Farmwife Feeds I’ve found I have an oatmeal obsession, like not just a little but a lot. So I’m adding Oatmeal Scotchies to the long list!

Let’s talk butter vs shortening in cookies! I love butter don’t get me wrong but butter will make a crispier cookie where shortening will make a softer one. I’m a true soft cookie lover! As a matter of fact it’s what makes my Snickerdoodles so soft, the use of shortening and margarine.

I am a firm believer in parchment paper when baking. It makes for easy cleanup, even baked cookies on the bottom and no sticking! I suppose I should invest in a silpat mat but I’ll be honest I’ve just had such good luck with parchment paper, it’s tough to change! Plus let’s be honest, I’m not the most organized or neat person, so one less thing to store and clean is a good thing for me!

Cookies and donuts are my weakness. For some reason I am always drawn to a cookie with oatmeal in it, maybe it sounds healthier in my head? I can rationalize just about anything in my own head, honestly me head is a scary place.
