my very best oatmeal cookies

I am one of those grateful adults who grew up in a home where scratch cooking was gold. I also had the pleasure of being allowed to try my hand at cooking at a very early age. To say the least, pizza and cookies are two items I mastered very early. Throughout the years it has been my mission to make the best delicacies healthier, without sacrificing the flavor.

These are my best cookies. I hope you try and enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed sharing them with you!
