This recipe makes many little cookies. I like the small snack sized bites.
Tips: Use rolled oats, quick oats will require extra liquid. If you need a bit of extra sweetness drizzle with melted chocolate or cinnamon sugar icing. Make Cinnamon Sugar Icing by mixing 2 teaspoons cinnamon powder, ½ cup powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon liquid (milk, water or bourbon).
