This recipe is based on a recipe that my husband had before we got married. I have seen variations of it other places since I started making these cookies. These are my daughter's favorite cookie of all time, and she knows I usually make them around Christmas.
No Bake Cookies

pinch of salt
3 c. quick oats
1/4 to 1 c. chopped almonds (optional)
