Sweetheart Cookies

3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 2/3 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/3 cup rolled oats


Cream the butter, adding the sugars, and then the egg and vanilla.  Stir together dry ingredients and add to wet.  Add the oats last.  For best results, chill overnight before rolling.  Dust your pastry surface with confectioner’s sugar to prevent sticking and use a large-sized heart cookie cutter.  Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 5-8 mins at 350 degrees.  Allow to cool, and then put a quarter-sized dollop of your favorite vanilla frosting in the center and top with a conversation heart.
