    Recipe Introduction


    Oatmeal-raisin cookies that are: 1. Delicious 2. Chewy and moist 3. Low in fat

    Makes 16 large cookies.

    2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
    3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
    1/2 tsp. baking soda
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1 cup lightly packed brown sugar
    1/3 cup reduced-fat butter or margarine (not fat-free)
    1/4 cup buttermilk
    1 tsp. vanilla
    1/2 cup dark raisins

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Mix well. In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, butter or margarine, buttermilk and vanilla. Beat with electric mixer on low speed for 1-2 minutes, until well blended. Add oat mixture to sugar mixture. Stir until dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in raisins.

    Shape dough into 16 balls (1 1/2-inch diameter). place 2 inches apart on a large cookie sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Flatten cookies to 1/4-inch thickness using the back of a spoon. Dip the spoon in water to prevent it from sticking to cookies.

    Bake for 13-14 minutes, until tops of cookies are dry to touch and bottoms are golden brown. Do not overbake! Remove from cookie sheet immediately and let cool.
