Gelatin Desserts

I’ve been making these desserts for years. They’re light yet filling. (I know, weird) This is also not only easy to make, but very inexpensive. You can make them as the regular gelatin or sugar free, as I do. The entire dessert seems to be totally different depending on the original flavor of the gelatin.

I hope you enjoy!

Oatmeal Cookies

I’ve been making this recipe for well over 30 years.  It’s the first recipe I learned to make & has always been a favorite in our household.  It’s very easy to make & packs well in a lunch.  Making homemade insures that there are no preservatives, is much less expensive than store bought and always tastes better.

Oatmeal Cookies

1 cup shortening

1 & 1/3 cup sugar

4 eggs (beaten)

½ cup milk

2 cups flour

2 tsp. baking powder

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. nutmeg

1 tsp. salt

2 cups rolled oats

Cream together: shortening and sugar.   Add eggs and milk to sugar and shortening.  Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.  Stir in rolled oats.  Add creamed mixture.  Mix well. Drop by teaspoons on cookie sheet.  Bake 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

Makes about 30 depending on how large you make them.

Watch to see how I made it!

I hope you enjoy this recipe.

Happy Creating everyone!
