Raisin Oatmeal Cookies
In my small neighborhood, my grandkids and their friends stop by throughout the day. I keep my cookie jar well supplied with these.

I misplaced my oatmeal raisin cookie recipe , and now I'm happy, these are great! Oatmeal raisin is my favorite so these will be in our cookie jar often! For me & hubby I will probably do half a batch....so good!
These are very tasty! I only added the raisins, nothing else and they were really good! This recipe makes a TON, so be prepared!
I added chopped dried apricots for a tangy addition to an already perfect recipe.
This is a delicious version of oatmeal raisin cookies! They are m husband's fave and the readers of Taste of Home never fail to share their very best. The recipe does make a LOT of cookies. If you don't have a powerful stand mixer I think you will be in trouble. Whenever I make this recipe I take half of the cookies over to my grandkids, no cookies ever go to waste. I did alter the recipe a little, instead of softened butter I melt it in the microwave, let it cool a bit and then add it to the sugars. I blend it well then move on to the rest of the ingredients. I have found that overbeating the butter and sugar until light and fluffy incorporates too much air into the mix, which makes the cookie dry. Trust me, the butter trick makes a difference; try it with your chocolate chip cookie recipe; tender, soft chewy cookies, yum!
This has become my favorite cookie, and I am a notorious cookie monster, have been for over 50 years! I usually half the recipe since it makes so many, and put some in the freezer for later. My co-workers love them too.
The stars did not show up on my comment so here it is. LOVE , LOVE them
Made these cookies last year for christmas and they were a big hit. Gave them to neightbors as a gift and they commented on how delicious they were. I did use craisins instead of raisins and whitechocolate chips instead of chocolate . Getting ready to make them again .
These cookies are the best. Ibake them all the time now.
I changed the recipe quite a bit to make it egg free and it turned out awesome. Thanks for the recipe. You can check my version here: http://www.egglesscooking.com/2011/12/20/big-batch-oatmeal-raisin-cookies/
