By Agatha Curtis A Cookie A Day - Day 6 - CHOCOLATE OATMEAL COOKIES
For those of us who need or want to watch the sugars, etc. in our sweets, here’s an easy cookie recipe that doesn’t require baking. It is a variation of the famous “No Bake Cookies” that were the staple of our Girl Scout leader years.
