Oh-So-Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies


Oatmeal Raisin Cookies are my FAVE kind of cookies!! 

After playing in the snow today, my kiddos asked me to bake them some cookies, and I happily obliged! ;)

And of course, I'm going to share the recipe with you!
I'm not gaining 5 pounds without ya! ha!

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups raisins
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup butter (1 1/2 sticks), melted
1/2 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1tsp. cinnamon
1 TBSP vanilla extract
1 egg, plus 1 egg yolk

Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Line cookie sheets with wax paper or parchment paper

Melt butter and let it cool.

Then, in a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt.
Set aside.

Cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar.



Beat in the cinnamon, vanilla, egg and egg yolk
for about 2 minutes.


You want it to be creamy.


Add the flour mixture and blend by hand.


Add the old fashioned oats and raisins.


You want it to just blend into the mixture.


Scoop out 1/3-1/4 cup balls of dough and 
place onto the cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.


Bake for 15 minutes, or until edges are golden brown.


Enjoy!

Happy Baking!
