Oatmeal Lovers' Sugar Cookies by Salad Foodie

Oatmeal is the predominant ingredient in this sugar cookie recipe and that might seem a little bizarre. But don't expect your typical oatmeal cookies here! These have a far different texture and taste. Be sure to use quick oats rather than old fashioned. Bake up a batch and make a platter to share with your Valentines!
