OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES



Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

For the perfect winner to fill up your cookie jar, bake these got-it-all oatmeal cookies loaded with raisins and nuts. While there is no shortage of oatmeal cookie recipes out there, we love these in particular because they strike the perfect balance of crispiness and chewiness. The ratio of ingredients used turns out a cookie that isn't tall and cakey, but instead a little slender and nicely caramelized around the edges.

OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES (CAKE MIX)



Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (Cake Mix) image

I am occasionally called on mass produce cookies for events and need recipes which deliver homemade results with ease. A handy supply of cake mixes allow me to do just that. This particular recipe combines some elements of my favorite scratch recipes starting with a yellow cake mix. The cookies are slightly crispy on the outside and tender and chewy in the center.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening

1 (18 1/2 ounce) box yellow cake mix
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts (measure after chopping)
2 1/4 cups quick-cooking oatmeal (not instant)
1/4 cup water
1 1/4 cups raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Cream together the butter, shortening, egg, brown sugar and vanilla.
  • Add in the cake mix, cinnamon and walnuts until well mixed. Combine in the oatmeal and water. Depending on your mixer you may need to do this by hand.
  • Stir in the raisins. The amount of raisins is really a matter of personal taste. If you like raisins, start with 1 cup and decide if you want more. If you love raisins, start with the full amount and add and up to an additional 1/2 cup.
  • Place level tablespoons of dough on to a cookie sheet 1 1/2 inches apart. Flatten tops a bit as the cookies retain their shape. That is they do not melt down as some cookies do.
  • Bake at for 14 minutes, cookies should be lighted browned at the edges and and pale on top. If you like a crisper cookie, add 2 minutes to the baking time.
  • Note: Baking times are for the stated size which yield a nice two-bite sized cookie great for events. If you are making larger cookies, please adjust your baking time accordingly.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients. Opt for fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible. This will make a big difference in the taste and texture of your cookies.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for baking oatmeal raisin cookies is 350°F (175°C). Baking the cookies at a higher temperature will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Don't overbake the cookies. Overbaking can make the cookies hard and dry. Bake the cookies just until they are set around the edges and the centers are still slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and flavor.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you're sure to create delicious oatmeal raisin cookies that everyone will love. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a novice in the kitchen, this recipe is easy to follow and yields consistently great results. So gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to enjoy a batch of warm, chewy, and flavorful oatmeal raisin cookies!
