BEST EVER OATMEAL COOKIES--LAND O LAKES

Best Ever Oatmeal Cookies--Land O Lakes image

I got this recipe years ago in a supermarket checkout cookbook called Fast Scratch Vegetarian--I think it MIGHT be from Land O' Lakes but my copy is fairly shredded so I can't be sure. At any rate, we have been making these for years, and though the recipe title is theirs I have to say I agree! I hope you do, too!
