I modified Beatrice's Excellent Oatmeal cookies very slightly. I came up with something that my boyfriend went CRAZY over! I've never seen him enjoy cookies to that extent! He said I blew his mother's recipe away.
With a little experimenting, I came up with these chewy, spicy, oatmeal raisin cookies. They make your kitchen smell wonderful while they are baking. They almost remind me of Christmas because the spices smell so good.
My husband, who normally isn't fond of oatmeal, thinks these old-fashioned cookies are great. With a hint of nutmeg, their aroma is wonderful as they bake...and they taste even better!
Even if you're not in Phase 2 of the South Beach Diet, these low-carb pancakes may become your new Sunday morning tradition. You can top the pancake with a low-sugar syrup of your choice.
One thing we always love about fall is apple picking. Thankfully, we never had to go far to pick apples, since my mom and dad have several apple trees in their yard.
Apple cobbler may become one of your favorite apple desserts once you try this recipe. Serve this old-fashioned crunchy cobbler warm, with a dollop of ice cream.
