OATMEAL CRAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer cream together the cup of softened butter with 1 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/4 cup sugar until smooth.
• Add the 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons molasses, and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract then mix into the creamed butter and sugar (use 1 tablespoon of your all-purpose flour if desired to keep the wet mixture from looking curdled).
• Stir in the 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon dried orange peel, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
• Mix in the 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour until all of the flour has been incorporated into the wet ingredients.
• Fold in the 3 cups of old-fashioned rolled oats and 1 1/2 cups of craisins or dried cranberries. Your dough will still be sticky once everything is combined.
• Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, an hour is optimal.
• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line a baking sheet(s) with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Portion out roughly 1/2 tablespoon bits of the dough and roll them into 1-inch balls (use more dough to get the right size dough balls as needed). Place the dough onto your prepared baking sheets leaving about 2 inches of spacing for the cookies to spread.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) with the baking sheet in the center of the middle oven rack. My smaller cookies baked for 10 minutes, larger will take 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven when the edges are slightly golden and the center of the cookie still looks under-cooked.
• Allow the baked cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

THE BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Arrange an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon in a small bowl until combined. Beat the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the honey, vanilla, egg and 1 tablespoon warm water and beat on high speed until creamy, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl, about 3 minutes more. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed, scraping the bowl as needed, until completely combined. Add the oats and beat on low speed until combined. Fold in the raisins until evenly distributed. Arrange twelve 1-ounce scoops (2-tablespoon portions) of cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Bake until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on the sheet for 10 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Let the baking sheet cool, and then repeat with the remaining cookie dough.

THE VERY BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES EVER!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Whisk eggs in a small bowl, add 1/4 cup water, 1 tsp vanilla and raisins; mix well. VERY IMPORTANT let set on counter for at least 1 hour.
• In another bowl, combine crisco, and sugars, mix well.
• Gradually add dry ingredients.
• Blend in raisin mixture -- mix well.
• I use a cookie scoop, slightly less than 1/4 cup and place them on a greased cookie sheet. I slightly flatten them with the back of the scoop.
• Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Do not flatten cookies a lot -- just a gentle tap.other wise they will flatten out too much.
• Baking note: please remember to reverse position of cookie sheets halfway through baking. DO NOT OVER BAKE. Cookies should be slightly golden brown around edges. Centers will look set-- let cool 1 minute on cookie sheet and then remove to wire rack to complete cool.
• I have used this recipe for over 30 years-- always outstanding-- most important thing to remove cookies from oven before they are finished-- residual heat in cookies will complete cooking-- and result in a cookie that is not dried out.
• I also add more walnuts, as I like lots of big nuts in my oatmeal cookies-- I have often left the egg, raisin mixture on counter, for a couple of hours while cleaning house and came back and baked marvelous cookies.
