Peg's Aggression Cookies Recipe
I am looking for a recipe for Peg's Aggression Cookies. They are oatmeal cookies, from her "I Hate to... Cookbook"! My kids and I did these way back in the early 80's. The new "Aggression Cookies" have eggs in the batter, our recipe did not. Lots of butter, brown sugar, oatmeal certainly... then all you had to do was punch the batter with your fists! That's why everyone got into the act, we would just punch and punch. It was fun and they were very good cookies. Please help me find the recipe for the grandkids.
Thanks,
JoJo

For absolutely great steaks, get a thick slice of sirloin steak, put it in a zip lock bag with Italian dressing (any kind) and leave it sit at a minimum of 2 hours. It can stay as long as a day. Take it out of the bag and sprinkle some all seasoning, steak seasoning or if you want simple, salt and pepper will do.
Put them over direct flame, but sear one side for approximately 5 minutes and then sear on the other side for 5 minutes. It's best to let them sear in the middle of the pit where it is the hottest, then let them cook for about 15 minutes to finish cooking. For this part, put them on the outer edge in the pit so they cook slower. Voila! Our family likes them so much we NEVER go out for steaks anymore!
Enjoy and Blessing!

Here's an easy way to use up leftover meatballs. Cook extra large pasta shells according to package directions, then drain. Place shells in a 9x13 inch greased pan.
