oatmeal crispies

i made some of these wonderful little cookies over the weekend.
the kids really liked them - just the right amount of sweetness, not too much, just right.
the recipe is on pioneer woman's blog...she's got some good stuff on that blog.

the great thing about this recipe is that you can freeze the dough and pull them out to bake whenever you crave a fresh baked cookie.
we gave them out as father's day treats to the godfathers and grandfathers.
i've had these fun little bags i picked up on my birthday on clearance at sur la table.
i was finally able to put them to good use,  the kids made tags for them.

i have really been in the baking mood this summer.
and thanks to the double ovens (from our old kitchen) out in our workshop i am able to bake whenever i so desire and not heat up the kitchen.
it has been wonderful.
