I am giving this cookie recipe 5 stars even though mine came out incredibly flat. But that's my fault because I took the advice of several reviewers who suggested cutting the amount of oats to 1 1/2 cups. It might have worked out ok, but I didn't have any shortening on hand so I had to use all butter. I should have known better...I've made enough cookies to know that butter makes a flat cookie. I added a 1/2 cup of flour to the batter after baking a few batches and they came out MUCH better. Also, just wanted to note that I found an oat cookie recipe a few years ago that called for processing the oats in a food processor to get the texture of, say, wheat germ. I like this in a cookie much better than whole oats. All in all, a simple, tasty, soft, yummy cookie. It was an easy recipe for my 4 year old to help me with and she loves them so I'm sure we haven't seen the last of them.
