1 cup unsalted butter

3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the butter mixture. Finally, mix in the rolled oats.
Roll dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place the dough balls about 3 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheet.

Oatmeal Lace Cookies

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups quick cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
11 tablespoons butter
1 large egg
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup currants, soaked in 2 tablespoons brandy or orange juice, optional

PREPARATION:
Heat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, flour, sugar, baking soda and salt; set aside. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. In a small bowl beat the egg together with the heavy cream and vanilla extract.

Stir in soaked currants if using.
Stir in melted butter. Stir the liquid ingredients into the oat-flour mixture and blend well. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets. Cookies will spread, so leave at least 3 to 4 inches between each cookie.

Bake 5 to 6 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from oven and cool on cookie sheets for several minutes, until cookies will hold their shape. With a spatula, carefully remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
Makes about 3 to 4 dozen cookies.
