Personal Notes:
Grandma Carraher made these as far back as I can remember. She found the recipe in a 1970's comic book that was written for kids by the 4 H and encouraged good nutrition. The name of this cookie came from the group of kids in the comic book, called the Mulligan Stew Gang. These days I use whole oatmeal instead of quick oatmeal so I have to cut down on the oatmeal or the cookies are too dry.
