Golden Mariposa,

Here is the recipe that is more crispy than the apple cookies.

Oatmeal Crispies

1 cup butter or shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 well-beaten eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
3 cups quick cooking oats
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Cream shortening and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat well. Sift flour, salt, and soda. Add to creamed mixture. Add oats and nuts. Mix well. Shape into 2 rolls and wrap each in waxed paper. Chill until firm. Slice into 1/4-inch-thick pieces. Bake 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Makes 5 dozen.
