PAULA'S ULTIMATE OATMEAL COOKIES RECIPE - (2.7/5)

Steps:
- PREHEAT the oven to 350. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. USING a mixer, cream together the butter, shortening, and sugar at low speed until fluffy. Add the eggs and beat until the mixture is light in color. Add the buttermilk and mix to combine. SIFT together the flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, and allspice. At low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, fold in the oatmeal, raising, walnuts, and vanilla, blending well. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 1 1/2 inches apart onto the cookie sheets. Bake for 12-15 minutes. WHILE the cookies are baking, make the icing. In a small saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove the saucepan from the heat; stir in sugar and vanilla. Stir in enough water 3-4 tablespoons to make and icing of drizzling consistency. REMOVE the cookies to wire racks to cool. Drizzle with icing while cookies are still warm.
Tips:
- Use old-fashioned oats. They have a chewier texture than quick-cooking or instant oats.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes 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.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them firm up and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
These oatmeal cookies are the perfect combination of chewy, gooey, and crispy. They're also packed with flavor, thanks to the oats, raisins, and spices. Whether you're enjoying them for breakfast, lunch, or a snack, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
