Holiday Cookie Surprises
Whether it’s with some milk or just on their own, cookies are always a nice treat. The goodness of Quaker oats combines with bite sized candies for cookies that are a pleasant surprise. This holiday season give them something delicious to snack on.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) margarine or butter, softened
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar

- 1-1/4 cups Large Flake Quaker® Oats or Quick Quaker® Oats (uncooked)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
- Approximately 48 assorted bite-size candies

How to make it
- Heat oven to 325°F. Beat margarine and sugar until creamy. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Add combined flour, oats and salt; mix well.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Press desired candy piece into centre of each ball; shape dough around candy so it is completely hidden.
- Roll cookies in coloured sugar or candy sprinkles until evenly coated. Place 1-1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake 14 to 17 minutes or until set and bottoms are light golden brown. Remove to wire rack. Cool completely. Store tightly covered.
