[Hi H.]

Thanks for posting this. You're right that it's the recipe on the SP's website, and it makes a good cookie. BUT: The recipe in the SP cookbook is a little different, and I think it makes a better cookie. I just checked it; main differences: 12 TB butter, not 16; only 2/3 c APF; 3 cups oatmeal; 2 TB water; 1 egg. The orig recipe makes a cookie that is less cake-y and almost "bend-y" / a bit lace-y. Cheers.
