The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies
The cookies taste good. The problem I had with this recipe is that I wanted my cookies to be flat. I did some research and found that 400F is too high of a temperature and make the cookies puffy. If you want nice flat cookies to decorate decrease the oven temperature to 350F and bake until the edges are golden brown. That way the butter has time to melt and spread the cookie out a little and it make a nice flat surface to decorate. It also holds the shape of the cookie cutter better making nice points where there were points instead of rounded puffy edges. I used a combination of flour and powdered sugar to roll out the cookies because they were just too sticky without a little more flour. Be careful not to use too much flour or you will get a tough cookie. I also made the dough, shaped it into flattened squares and put it in the fridge overnight. I took one square out at a time to roll and cut. I took the excess and put it back in the fridge to cool and then took it out and used it later.

Slow Cooker Oatmeal
Definitely use steel cut oats and 4 cups of water. To keep it from sticking to the crock pot use a crock pot liner (they are like oven bags but made for the crock pot, you can find them at walmart near the ziploc bags). I add cinnamon and a peeled and diced apple to mine and in the morning brown sugar and milk on top into individual servings. It's really nice to have hot oatmeal without the hassel, especially steel cut oats.
