Personal Notes:
Optional ingredients might be 1/2 C dates, 1/2 C
nuts of your choice (I have even added chocolate chips.) For
a holiday flare spices like cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, etc. can
be added by the 1/2 tsp. or tsp. full. Whole oats can be
substituted for the 1-minutes oats. Whole oats will give the
cookie a different texture. I never add the salt. This is a great
recipe to experiment with. Enjoy!
