Name: Fortune Cookies
Ingredients: 1 c Flour; 3/4 c Rolled oats; 2/3 c Brown sugar, packed; 1/2 c Butter or margarine; 1/2 c Light corn syrup; 1/2 ts Vanilla; 1/4 ts Salt; Freezer paper

There comes a time when God's patience runs out (Rom. 2:4-10; 2 Pet. 3:8-10; Jude 5). Those living in continual disobedience must not presume upon God's grace, falsely assuming that God's kindness means that he is winking at their sin. Nor should we take God's forgiveness for granted. We must not sin willfully, thinking that by doing so we are simply giving God another opportunity to glorify himself by showing forth his mercy. As Paul would put it centuries later, 'Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means!' (Rom. 6:2). To do so is to reveal by one's hardened disobedience that the saving power of God is not really in one's life (see Rom. 6:2b-14),

Source: L.A. Times
Type or write 54 fortunes on freezer paper; cut into 4 x 1/2 strips. Slash
ends of strips if desired.
In a large bowl, combine flour and oats. In a medium saucepan, combine
brown sugar, butter (or margarine), corn syrup, vanilla and salt. Bring to
a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add to flour and oat
mixture, mixing well. Making only 4 cookies at a time, drop a teaspoon of
dough about 3 inches apart onto greased baking sheet, leaving a 1 1/2 inch
space between cookies and edge of the cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F.
about 5 minutes. Allow to cool 2 to 3 minutes on the cookie sheet. Place
one fortune in the center of each cookie. Immediately roll cookies into
cylinders. Cool completely on wire rack. (If cookies harden before shaping,
return to oven for a few seconds to soften.) Repeat with remaining batter.
Store loosely covered at room temperature.
Makes about 4 1/2 dozen cookies.
