My cookies came out soooo thin and flat. The flavor is good, though. After the first sheet came out I tried my luck with a different type of cookie sheet. Then added flour and more oatmeal and a THIRD type of cookie sheet. They all came out flat flat flat. Don't know what else to do! Think I'll try a different recipe next time.

They tasted amazing. My first batch all the cookies came out flat as paper. I don't know what happened but the second batch I popped in had nice shape to them. Great recipe.

Really good cookies! Just the right combination of ingredients. I dropped them instead of rolling into balls. Worked out fine. Will surely make again. Thanks!

Updated: Forgot to add that I didn't use the dried cranberries as it was late last night when I was baking and going to the grocery store was not an option. I used to have a very good recipe, but couldn't find it last night so I turned to zaar. I don't eat cookies, but DH just loves Oatmeal cookies and this recipe sounded great! Let me tell you the ingredients held up their end of the bargain and merged together to make an absolutely wonderful Oatmeal cookie! Thanks for posting and now this is the new staple for my household.
