Oat Flake Cookies

Here is a good one for the kids to help and for them to take in their snack box to kinder or school. I use Uncle Toby's Oat Flakes but you could use cornflakes or rolled oats if you prefer.

125gm butter
1/2 cup caster sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup SR flour
2 cups Oat Flakes
1/2 cup choc chips
1/4 cup sultanas
1/4 cup dried apricots or cranberries, chopped

Method

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius
  
• Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy
• Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth
• Add the flour and mix thoroughly
• Add the oat flakes, choc chips and Apricots / cranberries and mix well
  
• Place tea spoons of the mixture on a lined cookies sheet
• Cook for 15 - 20 minutes or until golden
• Allow to cool on the tray as they will be soft.
