Heather's Healthy Oatmeal Surprises

By: Kahana

"These oatmeal cookies are better for you than the average cookie. Whole wheat flour, peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, cinnamon, and nutmeg also give them more flavor. If you like oatmeal cookies, I urge you to try these!!"

Ingredients

3/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
