My mom created this recipe years ago and my sisters and brother and I have entered this in 4-H and won many awards. Yummy on its own or with chocolate frosting!

WWII Oatmeal Molasses Cookies
This was my Grandmother's recipe from the 1940s. These cookies use molasses in place of brown sugar, which was one of the items rationed during World War II (and harder to get than white sugar, they tell me). To me they're better than regular oatmeal cookies!
