Warm oatmeal cookies are one of my favorite old-fashioned treats! I love to add butterscotch chips to kick them up a notch. Oatmeal cookies always reminds me of my grandma because she always has cookies in her cookie jar when we go to visit. The kids' favorite thing to do when visiting Grandma is to check out what kind of cookies she's made for us! Adding craisins and white chocolate chips are another way to dress up this recipe! I dare you to try them all! I promise you will not be disappointed.
