Oatmeal Raisinet Cookies image

Everyone I know, with the exception of a few of us raisin lovers, prefers chocolate chip cookies. To satisfy the cravings for both the raisin and chocolate lovers, I used Raisinets. Yes, chocolate covered raisins. How cool is that! Now, everyone is happy! This is my favorite Oatmeal Raisin cookie recipe. I've been making...

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 c butter, room temperature
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar, light
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 c all-purpose flour
1 c quick cooking oats (do not use instant)

  • 5. Add egg and vanilla; beat until light and fluffy.
  • 6. Add dry ingredients; combine thoroughly; stir in raisinets. NOTE: Cookie dough will be stiff. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes. NOTE: Refrigerating the dough is necessary to keep the cookie from being flat when baked.
