Swedish Oatmeal Cookies

...another cookie from The Cookie Jar, Hannah's bakery in Minnesota (all via Joanne Fluke's mystery series)

This cookie recipe can be found in Fluke's "Key Lime Pie Murder" on page 21.  The oatmeal in the recipe gives the cookies a wonderful texture; they are soft and chewy on the inside, and crunchy on the outside.  The flavor is that of a good, basic cookie.  Cinnamon or Chinese five spice would be a flavorful addition to these cookies.
