Quaker still places this recipe on the inside lid of their oatmeal….one big difference is that the new recipe doesn’t contain as much butter or sugar. The new recipe is NOT as amazing! So glad the original is preserved!
Why was recipes change on lid in 1/2 c butter plus 6tablespoons butter. 3/4 brown sugar. To 1c butter and 1c brown sugar
Great oatmeal cookie, no need to make any other recipe.
Love this recipe. Tasty and moist. I added pecans and it worked out fine.
