These are the most amazing cookies ever and so easy to make. I have no idea why they are so much better than any other cookie I make but they are. You can substitute the raisins for chocolate chips or dried cherries but Jim doesn't like me to "ruin" his favorite cookies by not using raisins so I usually just stick to the recipe.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp milk
1 egg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup oatmeal (note: it cannot be the "quick oatmeal" kind, must be the original kind)
1/2 cup or 1 cup of raisins (or chocolate chips or cherries...amount is really based on preference)
Directions:
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees
-cream butter
-add sugar and brown sugar and cream until well blended
-add vanilla extract, egg and milk
-sift together flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda and add to mixture
-add oatmeal
-add raisins
-drop 2 inches apart on cookie sheet and bake 10-12 minutes
