German Lace Cookies

Picture
We were in Trader Joe's one day and I noticed they had German Lace Cookies!  Enthusiastically, I scooped up a box and informed my kids they were going to love this treat. They looked at the cookies with skepticism and moved on. Once home, I opened these sweet treats – and my kids all refused to eat them – until I goaded one of them into actually tasting one. One taste is all it takes and those cookies are quickly history.  I remembered these from my childhood, so I searched for the original recipe and thought I’d share it with you.

German Lace Cookies

1  C.  Old Fashioned Oats
½ C    Melted Butter
1 C.    Sugar
¼ t      Baking Powder
2 T.     (Heaping) Flour
1        Egg
½  t    Vanilla
¼  t     Salt
                                                                                                                                                     Makes 2-3 dozen
​
Mix all ingredients together and let set in refrigerator for 20 minutes.  Grease and flour cookie sheets (or use parchment paper). Drop by spoonful onto cookie sheets leaving 1½  inches between cookies (they spread a lot).  Let set on cookie sheet until cool.



                                             Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes - they should be more gold than brown
Serving Suggestions:


  • Melt semi-sweet chocolate chips and thinly frost the bottom of one cookie. Pair with another cookie of equal size and make a sandwich with bottoms together.  These will be just like the German lace cookies you get at Trader Joe's – only fresher!
  • When cookies are still warm but not hot, carefully remove from cookie sheet and drape cookie over muffin tin to finish cooling. These make great little ice cream cups for parties.
  • Drizzling chocolate over anything makes it look and taste better - these cookies are not an exception.
