Oven: 375 F

1 ¼ cups butter (2 ½ sticks)

¾ cup sugar

¾ cup brown sugar

 

Beat well until fluffy.

2 eggs

2 tsp vanilla

 

Add and beat well.

2 cups flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

 

2 cups oatmeal

1 tsp cinnamon

½ tsp nutmeg

 

Optional:

1 cup chopped walnuts

 

Sift the flour, salt and soda together. Mix in all ingredients gently by hand.

 

Lightly spray or grease the cookie sheets. Drop the batter by teaspoons. Don’t handle the dough too much, it makes the cookies tough. Bake 8-10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
