Oatmeal Christmas Cookies

INGREDIENTS

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves, optional
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups oats
1 cup M&Ms*

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350°F.  Cream butter, sugars, eggs and vanilla until smooth.  Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt.  Stir into sugar mixture.  Add oats and M&Ms.  Drop by rounded teaspoons on ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake 10-12 minutes.  Remove from pan after cooling 2 minutes.


*If you want to be festive, you can use the red- and green-colored M&Ms.  I also posted this now because you can also make these cookies anytime with just regular M&Ms.
