I don't think this is what you described exactly but I do remember that these have that texture.. Let me know if this is at least close.. :)
Lace Cookies
    * 2 sticks butter, softened (not margarine)
    * 3 C. brown sugar, packed
    * 1 egg
    * 1/4 tsp. salt
    * 1 tsp. almond extract (or vanilla if you prefer)
    * 4 C. quick rolled oats (regular oats work, too)
    * 1/2 C. toasted pecans, chopped fine

Use your mixer to blend the butter and sugar.
Add egg, extract, and salt; blend in oats.
Put a light coating of oil on a cookie sheet.
Make small balls on the sheet (I like to use a melon baller), two inches apart, and bake at 325 degrees for 8 minutes.
These cookies will spread, hence the name. Don't overcook. Let cool completely on cookie sheet
