WWII OATMEAL MOLASSES COOKIES
This was my Grandmother's recipe from the 1940's. These cookies use molasses in place of brown sugar, which was one of the items rationed during the war (and harder to get than white sugar, they tell me). To me they're better than regular oatmeal cookies!

OATMEAL COOKIE BARS
These are easily the best homemade oatmeal cookie bars we've ever had, and that's really saying something! This recipe is simple to make and has all the essentials - chopped nuts, chocolate chips, high quality Gold Medal™ flour, and whole-grain oats. We love the ease of making oatmeal cookie bars because they have the chewy texture and flavor of an oatmeal cookie, but they take only 10 minutes to prep and use only one pan in the oven. Add extra indulgence by drizzling a little melted chocolate over these once they are cool and before you cut out the bars.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- In a stand mixer, mix the sugar and coconut oil until combined. Add the molasses and eggs and mix until combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the raisins and walnuts.
- Using a 2-tablespoon or 1-ounce scoop, portion the dough onto the baking sheets, 1/2 to 1 inch apart. If you like chewier cookies, leave the dough as is. If you like crispier cookies, press down with a spoon to flatten. Bake until the edges are brown, about 15 minutes. Cool before serving.

Steps:
- Kick the tires and light the fires to 375 °F.
- Cream the sugars and the margarine together. Add in your two eggs and beat in completely.
- Add in the molasses to the margarine/sugar mix and mix in thoroughly.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients.
- Combine the wet and dry and mix well.Then add in your raisins.
- Divide the dough into two pieces, and from each half form three long rolls on a cookie sheet.
- Build them up as high as you can and they fit across a baking sheet, width-wise. When you build them up, you get a thicker, chewier bar.
- Bake them in the oven at 375 for 13-15 minutes, and do not over/under bake. This from my grandma's instructions. So they need to be baked until the edges are cooked and the middle slightly still underdone.
- Slice them across into about 8-10 squares when they are fully cooled, needless to say, this recipe makes a large amount, you can end up with 40-60 of the little bars!

OATMEAL MOLASSES BREAD
This bread has been our family's favorite for many years, and now I sent it to my out-of-town children. I added the aniseed to the recipe, which gives the bread a delicious, distinctive licorice flavor. It makes wonderful toast!
