Whole Grain Oatmeal Cookies

I made these the other day for the geek boys in the office -and while geek boys will eat pretty much anything - no one guessed they were relatively healthy - and made from whole wheat flour.

1 cup low fat cream cheese
3/4 cup Brown Sugar, packed
1/2 cup egg beaters (2 eggs basically)
2 cups sifted Whole Wheat Flour
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt (I do not use salt, so the only salt I have in the house is celtic sea salt - it worked just fine)
1/2 tsp Allspice
1 tsp ground Saigon Cinnamon (reg cinnamon is fine, I thin the saigon has more kick)
1 tsp ground Nutmeg
2 splashes milk - this was maybe 1/4 of a cup more or less - just to moisten the batter a bit)
1 1/2 cups Oats, Rolled, Quick Cooking
1/2 cup ground flax seed
1 cup dried cranberries (I hate raisins - -if you don't - use 'em)
1 cup chopped pecan halves (leave 'em out i you don't like nuts or use your favorite nut)

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a large bowl of an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and brown sugar until creamy. Beat in eggs until well blended.

In another bowl sift together flour, salt, soda, and spices. Add flour and milk alternately to shortening mixture; fold in the quick oats, flax, cranberries and chopped nuts.

Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheet, spacing about 2" apart. Bake until cookies are golden, but center are still soft (10-12 minutes).

these cookies tend to last about 3 days in an airtight container before getting stale... they did not last more than a few hours in the office

enjoy -no idea what the nutrition info is - and it's a cookie - so who cares.
