These are great tasting oatmeal cookies! I ended up with about 45 4-inch cookies. I increased the cook time to 15 minutes and could fit about 6 per cookie sheet while baking. In half the batch I used butterscotch chips and the other had Craisins (sweetened dried cranberries). Both additions were great. Thanks for posting the recipe Kat's Mom!!
