Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

So tonight for dessert..Paige made Oatmeal Raisin cookies...her absolute favourite at Subway!   What a cookie to live up to....however, she did it!!!  They were moist, chewy flavourful, "and even Taeya....who only eats chocolate chip cookies ate one mommy"..Paige Rippel!!   Once again we went 'healthy' and it worked!!  We used all whole wheat flour and organic cane sugar by SWEETCANE...they turned out soft, chewy, flavourful, and in my words.."they taste like my Nan's cookies!"

The final photo is with my 'antique, milk jug'  it is a part of Kelowna history! ;-))


Enjoy, with a cold glass of milk!


Ingredients/Procedure:

Preheat oven: 350 BAKE

COMBINE IN LARGE MIXING BOWL

1 C softened butter
1 C packed brown sugar
1/2 C White Sugar * - Or sweetcane
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla sugar

Mix on Medium Speed until smooth and creamy!

COMBINE IN MEDIUM MIXING BOWL

1 1/2 C All purpose flour ( I used whole wheat)
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp salt

Stir together,

Then add to sugar mixture, stir into mix well

Stir in
3 C rolled Quaker Oats
1 C Raisins.

After all is mixed well, spoon mixture in TBSP or (for perfect cookies...use melon baller)  Do not press down - this will lead to a more moist cookie.

Bake for 8 min ( no longer....as oatmeal will burn)  re-grease and wipe cookie sheet in between each batch.
