    Posted by: Redraspberrygirl

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups butter or margarine
    2 cups granulated sugar
    2 cups packed brown sugar
    4 eggs
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    4 cups all-purpose flour
    5 cups rolled oats
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    3/4 cup chopped nuts
    1 cup raisins

    Recipe



    Cut four 14" x 12" pieces of waxed paper or plastic wrap. Cream butter or margarine, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla until light and fluffy. In a medium bowl, combine flour, oats, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture until blended. Stir in nuts and raisins. Divide dough into 4 pieces. Shape each piece into an 8- to 10-inch roll. Wrap each roll in 1 piece of waxed paper or plastic wrap. Place in a plastic freezer container with a tight-fitting lid, or wrap airtight in a 14" x 12" piece of heavy-duty foil. Label with date and contents. Store in freezer. Use within 6 months. Makes 4 rolls of dough or about 12 dozen cookies.
    Cook 350 degrees 14-16 minutes

    To make cookies:
    Slightly thaw dough roll. Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly grease baking sheets;
    set aside. Cut dough into slices or chunks. Place dough about 1 inch apart on
    prepared baking sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are light brown and
    centers are slightly set. Cool about 2 minutes on baking sheet. Remove cookies
    and cool on wire racks
