Chocolate chips + oatmeal cookies are good. Raisins + oatmeal cookies are good. So I thought, how about chocolate-covered raisins in oatmeal cookies? Also good, as it turns out. Really good. Especially when you use the dark chocolate Raisinets, but regular Raisinets do just fine.

yield: 20 COOKIES
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 and 1/2 cups Raisinets

Steps:

  • With an electric or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars together on medium speed. Add the egg and vanilla, mixing well until combined. On slow speed, mix in the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Manually stir in oats until the dough comes together. Fold in Raisinets. Roll into balls and freeze the balls for about 5 minutes, to get them chilly quickly. Preheat oven to 375F. Bake for 9-10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 3 minutes on the baking sheet. Transfer to a cookie rack. Cookies will be very soft and may not appear to be done, but they will set up in minutes.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats. They will give your cookies a chewier texture.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
