INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Beat butter until creamy.  Gradually add sugar, beating until fluffy.
Blend in egg and vanilla.  Sift together flour, soda and salt.  Add  to
creamed mixture; blend well.  Stir in oats.  For ease in handling,
chill dough about 1 hour.  Shape to form 1-inch balls.  Place on
ungreased cooky sheets.  Flatten  slightly with bottom of glass dipped
in sugar.  Insert flat wooden  stick or wooden skewer into each.  Bake
in preheated moderate oven  (375 F.) 10 to 12 minutes; cool.  Frost
cookies with confectioners' sugar frosting.  Attach chocolate  shot for
hair and gumdrop pieces for eyes, nose and mouth.  For girl  cookies,
pipe a bow onto hair with thick frosting.  Tie a ribbon bow  onto stick
for boy's bow tie.  When frosting is set, insert sticks into large
gumdrops so that  cookies stand up.  Source: Our Favorites for family
