In a medium bowl mix dry ingredients. Add in thirds to the margarine mix (batter will be stiff).

Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch GLASS baking dish and spread batter in (it will spread thin, I got it even using an icing knife). Mix topping ingredients together until crumbly and sprinkle on top of better. Bake 20 minutes.

wow...so moist and yummy. I think I'd add more strawberries next time, because the strawberry was more of an undertone than i was expecting. i didn't have any flax seed, so i doubled the oats instead, turned out wonderful. Made for PAC Spring 2009

Why "SoupCookie"? My cousin Ryan use to come to my house after school sometimes and was *always* hungry! So he used to make his version of chocolate chip cookies and I can't remember what he did or didn't do right but the cookies never failed to come out flat and doughy and gooey. We'd put them in a bowl with milk and eat it with a spoon.....sooooo good! To this very day his recipe has not been deciphered ;) <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
