AKA…John’s favorite cookie.
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
From a package of Sun-Maid raisins
Ingredients
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or a little more if you’re like me)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups quick or old fashioned oats
1 cup raisins
Directions
Preheat oven to 350*.
Beat butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, milk, egg and vanilla until light and fluffy.
Stir together flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Use a whisk to make sure they’re combined properly.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix well.
Stir in oats and raisins. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets. I like to line mine with parchment paper for easy clean up.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until golden at the edges but still a little undercooked-looking on top.
Remove from cookie sheets and cool on wire racks.
