Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter + 6 tbsp unsalted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt optional
  • 3 cups quick oats or old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup raisins

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Add butter and sugars to a stand mixer and beat until cream. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy.
  • In a separate bowl mix together the dry ingredients - flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt and mix well. Add the flour to the sugar mixture and stir. Add oats and raisins and mix until combined.
  • Use cookie scoop to scoop out dough onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
  • Remove to wire rack and let cool.

Notes

*For high altitude increase the flour to 1-3/4 cups and bake as directed.
*Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
**After the cookie dough is formed into balls, they can be placed in a ziploc bag and frozen. Then bake cookies from frozen - they'll likely take an extra minute or two.
