BUTTERSCOTCH OAT SQUARES
     OAT-SQUARES - Easy butterscotch oatmeal pan cookies

     The easiest cookies (actually cookie-like objects) to make.
     My mother makes these, I don't know where the recipe is
     from.

INGREDIENTS (makes 30-40)
     2 cups    quick or instant oats
     1 cup     brown sugar (packed)
     1/2 cup   melted butter
     1/2 tsp   vanilla

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Mix oats and brown sugar, mix in butter and
               vanilla.

          (2)  Divide mixture evenly in 2 ungreased 8-inch square
               pans, spread evenly.  Bake at 375 deg. F for about
               10 minutes or until it looks golden-brown.
               Squares will be soft, but will harden when cool.

          (3)  Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then mark in squares
               with a sharp knife.  Loosen edges and allow to
               cool before removing from pans.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 5 minutes preparation, 15 minutes
     cooking and cooling.  Precision: approximate measurement OK.
