Oatmeal Cookies

Large Flake Oatmeal Cookies: The addition of almond extract and large flake oats make these not your average oatmeal cookies. Quick, easy, and a little bit special, sure to become a family favourite.

These Oatmeal Cookies are chewy, use large flake oats, and have a little almond extract in them, making them not your average oatmeal cookie.

I first tried them at a get together, and found myself thinking about them the next day…which sounds hilarious, and I promise is not one of my normal past times.  They were just different…memorable…special.  So I asked my friend Dawn for the recipe and tried my first batch today.

I made them for a get together tonight…and I’m having a hard time to stop eating them all this afternoon.
