50 min - Chill:

2 hrs - Bake:

10 min

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, softened*

2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar

1 egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup uncooked quick-cooking oats

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped gumdrops

Combine sugar, butter and brown sugar in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Reduce speed to low; add flour, oats, baking soda and salt. Beat until well mixed.

Stir in gumdrops by hand. Shape dough into 9x1 1/2-inch roll. Wrap in waxed paper; refrigerate until firm (at least 2 hours).

350 F. Cut roll, using serrated knife, into 3/8-inch slices. Place

1 inch apart onto lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned and set. Immediately remove from cookie sheets. Cool completely.

*Substitute LAND O LAKES® Soft Baking Butter with Canola Oil right from the refrigerator.

TIP: Carefully cut gumdrops into small pieces using a kitchen scissors. Dip the blades of scissors in water to prevent sticking.

TIP: Vary this recipe easily by using a variety of stir-in ingredients such as mini real semi-sweet chocolate chips, raisins and sweetened dried cranberries.

2 to 3 days. The roll may also be frozen. Place wrapped roll of cookie dough into plastic resealable freezer bag; freeze up to

3 months.

TIP: This recipe can doubled to yield 2 rolls cookie dough.
