OATMEAL LACE COOKIES

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, melted

2 cups sugar

7 tablespoons all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 eggs

2 cups quick oats

1 teaspoon vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix ingredients and drop by teaspoonfuls onto baking sheet lined with parchment paper (this prevents sticking).  Bake approximately 8 minutes.  Watch closely as they burn easily.  Also, they spread like mad so leave plenty of space between them on the cookie sheet (9 to 12 on a sheet).  Yield:  About 100 cookies.
