Title: Classic Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies
Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Grans, Fruits, Spices
Yield: 36 Servings
1 c Unsalted butter (227 g);
- softened, more for pans
1 c Dark brown sugar (200 g);
- packed
1/3 c Granulated sugar (66 g)
2 lg Eggs
1 tb Vanilla extract (15 ml)
1 1/2 c A-P flour (187 g)
3/4 ts Salt
1 ts Baking soda
1 ts Ground cinnamon
1/4 ts Fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 ts Ground cardamom or ground
- ginger
3 c Old fashion rolled oats
- (270 g)
1 1/2 c Raisins (225 g)
Set oven @ 350 F/175 C.
Butter two large cookie sheets, or line them with parchment paper
or reusable silicone liners.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter in a large bowl until creamy.
Add brown and granulated sugars, then beat until fluffy, about
2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated.
Then, beat in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix together
the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom.
Set mixer on low speed, and beat flour mixture into the butter
mixture.
Stir in oats and raisins.
Spoon out dough by large tablespoonfuls onto prepared cookie
sheets, leaving at least 2" between each cookie.
Bake until cookie edges turn golden brown, about 9 to 13 minutes.
Centers will still be quite soft, but they will firm up as the
cookies cool. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight
container @ room temperature.
