Today I share the third of the seven Christmas cookies and these have a special place in my heart as they remind me of my Norwegian grandfather, who we called, 'Far' which actually means Dad. He had simple tastes in life asked only that people around him worked hard, were honest and put family first.
He loved these cookies, simple ingredients found in the store cupboard nothing special but wow buttery and lovely. You'll forever be remembered Far...

Rolled Oat Cookies
♥ You will need: makes between 20-25 cookies
225g butter
270g rolled oats
100g sugar
1 egg
Melt the butter in a pan and then add the rolled oats. Stir them in and keep on medium heat, stirring occasionally until the oats are golden in colour.
Remove from the heat to cool a little.
In a separate bowl add the sugar and egg. Mix together until the sugar begins to dissolve.

| Leave to cool before storing in an airtight container |
Place drops of the mixture onto lined baking sheets. Leaving room between each as they will spread.
Bake in a preheated oven at 140 degrees Celsius for about 10-12 minutes or until golden in colour.
Cool on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container. These will keep for up to a week.
