My favorite Oatmeal Cookies

1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. almond extract
2 eggs
2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal
1 tsp. baking soda
2 cups flour

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream both sugars, vanilla, and almond extract in a bowl. Add the eggs and mix.

Mix the oatmeal, baking soda, and flour in a separate bowl; add to the butter-and -sugar mixture and stir together.

Place the dough by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake about 12 minutes, or until lightly brown around the edges. Cool cookies slightly before removing them from the sheet.

This makes about 42 of the best ever Oatmeal Cookie's.
