List of Ingredients




Whisk together:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon


Cream together:

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla

Finally:

3 cups oats (not instant)
1 1/2 cups raisins (I put them in hot water for awhile, then nuked them for 2 minutes to plump.)







Recipe



1 Preheat oven to 350°.
2 Whisk dry ingredients; set aside.
3 Combine wet ingredients with a mixer on low.
4 To cream, increase speed to high and beat until fluffy and the color lightens.
5 Stir the flour mixture into the creamed mixture until no flour is visible.
6 (Over mixing develops the gluten, making a tough cookie.) Now add the oats and raisins; stir to incorporate.
7 Fill cookie scoop with dough.
8 (Use a #40 cookie scoop; it measures 2 tablespoon of dough) Press against side of bowl, pulling up to level dough.
9 Drop 2-inches apart onto baking sheet sprayed with nonstick spray.
10 Bake 11-13 minutes (on center rack), until golden, but still moist beneath cracks on top.
11 Remove from oven; let cookies sit on baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
