Oatmeal Snickerdoodle Cookies

I love this time of the year. The combination of family, friends and food make the holidays so much fun! I usually end up spending a good chunk of time in my kitchen but I really don’t mind at all. Being able to whip up delicious foods to share with those that I love makes that time in the kitchen totally worth it.

While I do have some traditional items that I serve every year, I am always looking for new recipes to share with everyone.  The folks at Quaker® sent me their new Oatmeal Snickerdoodle Cookie recipe, created exclusively for Publix® shoppers, and I couldn’t wait to try it out – we are huge oatmeal fans. Let me tell you, that was the best oatmeal cookie I have ever had. I made a big batch for the baseball party we had a couple of weeks ago, and the plate was empty by the end of the night!

I have a cookie swap coming up in a few weeks, and this cookie is a definite on my list to make. My husband has already put in a request for another batch, so I’ll probably have to double the recipe so that I have enough to share!
