Oatmeal Raisin Spice Cookies image

My husband loves oatmeal raisin cookies, soft chewy ones. I got this basic recipe from an online site, can't remember which one and added the spices I wanted to use...they are so good...

Categories     Cookies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 c sugar
1 egg, beaten lightly
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
3/4 c self rising flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 c quick oats
1/2 c raisins-soaked to plump them
baking sheets lined with parchment

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the spices with the flour and sift one time to blend. Cream the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla, mix well. Add the flour mixture and mix well. Fold in the oats and raisins blending them in.
  • 2. Drop by heaping teaspoons or use smallest scoop, onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes, DO NOT overbake or they will be hard...for nice smooth chewy cookies, 8 minutes is all they cook, remove from oven, cool on sheet for two minutes then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
  • 3. Note: Raisins may be plumped using water or juice...I use apple juice and brind to just a simmer in a boiler on the stove, remove from heat and let them set while I work on the batter, then squeeze the excess juice away and add to the batter.

I'm allergic to raisins, so I'm going to try making these cookies with dried cranberries instead.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies turned out flat and dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loves them.

These cookies were a hit with my family! They were soft and chewy, with just the right amount of spice. I'll definitely be making them again.
