Oatmeal Pecan Skillet Blondies

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...These cake-like blondies, combine the taste of oatmeal and toasted nuts in cookie wedges that bake in a cast iron skillet. I rely heavily on cookies such as these because they are so easy to transport to gatherings at this time of year. They are perennial favorites, so transportation is usually a one-way affair. It is hard to resist a treat that is nearly effortless to make, and tastes so good with milk or coffee. This recipe is best made in an iron skillet, and if you change the type of pan you use to make the blondies, you will have to alter cooking time as well. If like downhome flavor in your cookies, you will love these. They are great keepers and should you have leftovers, you'll find they do not easily stale. Here is how the blondies are made.
