This is one of my favorite cookie recipes- my grandmother and I used to make these for Christmas. Additionally, the recipe started out dairy free!

1 cup brown sugar
1 cup shortening
1 tsp baking soda
2 eggs
2 cups oatmeal
1 2/3 cups flour

Mix all the ingredients together, and roll fairly thin on a floured surface. Bake at 350 degrees for about 12 minutes. When cool, put together as sandwich cookies with the date filling.

Date filing:
1 cup dates
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup water

Boil until thick!

The date filling helps keep the cookies moist and delicious.
