Yet another day celebrating a type of cookie (or biscuit) and yet another biscuit that uses the ever-popular oatmeal as an ingredient.
Lacy oatmeal cookies contain oatmeal - naturally - which is ground oat groats. Oatmeal is quite a healthy addition to a diet, although generally, in order to receive the full health benefits, it's best not to wrap them around a cookie first! The lacy part of the name comes from the appearance of the finished cookies - they are full of lace-like holes.
These cookies would normally be a type of drop cookie, which are made from a comparatively soft dough, spoonfuls of which are then "dropped" onto the baking tray before they are cooked. In the UK, biscuits of this type are generally the only ones that are referred to as cookies.
