    List of Ingredients




    2 c. flour
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
    1 tsp. baking powder
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1 c. unsalted butter, room temperature
    1 c. light brown sugar, packed
    1/2 c. sugar
    1 T. pure vanilla
    3 T. milk
    2 lg. eggs
    3 c. old fashioned oats
    1 c. raisins

    Recipe



    In a med. bowl, whisk together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.

    In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine butter with both sugars, and beat until light and fluffy.

    Add vanilla, milk, and eggs, and mix well.

    Add flour mixture, and beat until just combined. Remove bowl from the electric mixer, and stir in oats, raisins and nuts.

    Place dough in the refrigerator until firm, about 2 hrs. or
    overnight.

    Heat oven to 350.

    Line several baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.

    Scoop out 2 T. of dough, and shape into a ball. Place on one of the prepared sheets. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing balls 3" apart.

    Press down to flatten into 2" diameters.

    Transfer to the oven, and bake until golden but still soft in center, 16-18 mins., rotating the pans between oven shelves halfway through baking. Remove from oven, and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

    Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

    Makes 36 cookies
