Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies

 

Recipe By : www.cookinglight.com

Serving Size : 24 Preparation Time :

Categories : Cookies

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/3 cup butter or stick margarine -- softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup regular oats

1/2 cup raisins

Cooking spray

 

Tips: We hate to nag, but once again, please make sure that you're not

scooping your flour. Lightly spoon it into a dry measuring cup and then

level off the excess with a knife. Regular oats are also sometimes called

old-fashioned oats. What we're looking for here is the kind other than the

instant or quick-cooking oatmeal. To freeze these cookies, make sure they

cool completely on a wire rack; then place them in a heavy-duty zip-top

plastic bag. Remove excess air and store in the freezer for up to one

month. When ready to eat, remove desired amount of cookies and thaw at room

temperature.

 

1. Preheat oven to 350ø.

 

2. Beat first 6 ingredients at medium speed of a mixer until light and

fluffy. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup, and level with a

knife. Add flour and oats to egg mixture; beat until blended. Stir in

raisins. Drop by level tablespoons 2 inches apart onto baking sheets coated

with cooking spray. Bake at 350ø for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool on pan for 3 minutes. Remove cookies from pan; cool on wire racks.

Yield: 2 dozen (serving size: 1 cookie).
