Recipe ingredients and directions:
2 ts Water
1 1/2 c Oatmeal
1 t Ginger, powder
1/4 lb Butter, unsalted
1/3 c Sugar, brown, dark
1/4 ts Baking soda
Cream the butter; add the sugar and beat until light
and fluffy. Dissolve the baking soda in the water and
add, stirring well. Add the oatmeal and ginger, mixing
well. The mixture should be fairly firm. If necessary,
add a little more oatmeal. Knead lightly on a floured
surface. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Press the
mixture in a buttered baking dish, about 8 x 12
inches. The dough should be about 1/2 inch thick. Bake
in the 300 degree oven for 35 minutes, or until brown
on top. Cut into squares while hot.
