Chef Stuart’s Oatmeal Pecan Cookies
When it comes to cookies—and let’s face it, we all love our cookies, it’s hard to find healthy ones out there—but this is my best solution for healthy cookies. Oatmeal takes me back home and incorporating it into cookies is a great way to get fiber into your diet. If you’re on the go, grab a cookie on your way to work or put one in your kid’s lunch box. These are also great for freezing in Freezer Mates® Containers for later!
Makes approximately 24 cookies

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

2 tsp. Simple Indulgence™ Cinnamon-Vanilla Seasoning Blend
