HEALTHY-ISH IRISH OATMEAL COOKIES



Healthy-ish Irish Oatmeal Cookies image

On the back of a McCann's® Quick Cooking Irish Oatmeal box I noticed a recipe for 'Irish Oatmeal Cookies.' I more or less followed the recipe substituting things here and there, and the results were über-delicious. Perfect for a coffee or tea break snack or breakfast. I would have added some cinnamon if my hubby didn't dislike that flavor so much. Please try it! Here's what I did.

Irish Oatmeal Cookies With Raisins and Walnuts image

Delicious! The best oatmeal cookies ever! Moist and chewy, and delicious--these cookies are everything an oatmeal cookie should be, and more! The raisins are plumped in Irish whiskey before adding to the batter, and there are plenty of nuts and just a hint of cinnamon in these yummy cookies. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

Yield 3 1/2 dozen cookies, 42 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 cups raisins
3 -4 tablespoons Irish whiskey (or water)
1 cup Butter Flavor Crisco or 1 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups old fashioned oats or 2 1/4 cups mccann's quick-cooking irish oatmeal
1 1/4 cups broken walnut pieces
1/4 cup granulated sugar, for tops of cookies (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place raisins into a small saucepan, add the whiskey or water and bring to the boil over medium high heat, stirring constantly. Off the heat, cover and set aside to steep.
  • In a large bowl, use a wooden spoon to cream together the shortening, sugars, eggs, and vanilla.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt with a wire whisk.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the shortening mixture, mixing with a wooden spoon.
  • Stir in the oats, then blend in the raisins and the walnuts; mix well.
  • Use a cookie scoop or drop by heaping teaspoonfuls 2-inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Place some granulated sugar in a small bowl. Moisten the bottom of a small glass in water and dip into sugar, then press the glass gently onto the top of each cookie to slightly flatten.
  • Bake in preheated 350F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden brown around the edges and centers are set--do NOT over bake.
  • Let cookies cool 1 minute on cookie sheet, then use a spatula to carefully remove warm cookies to wire rack to completely cool. DO NOT leave cookies on cookie sheet longer than a minute or two, or they will become stuck.
  • Store in an airtight container or freezer bag; these cookies freeze well.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 c mccanns quick cooking(not instant) oatmeal
2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp each baking powder, baking soda, & salt
2 stick (1 cup) unsalted kerry gold irish butter ( i use regular salted butter)
1 c light brown sugar (firmly packed)
1/2 c granulated sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/3 c irish cream liqueur
1 tsp each vanilla & peppermint extract
1 c chopped nuts ( i used walnuts)
1 c raisins
12 oz mint chocolate chips (i used andes mint chocolate candies, broken into chunks)

Steps:

  • 1. In my opinion you can not have oatmeal cookies without Raisins and nuts, so I added them to this recipe and they are the best I have had in a long time. The hardest part about this recipe is UNWRAPPING ALL OF THE CANDIES.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray cookie sheet with non stick cooking spray, or use parchment paper, set aside till needed.This is the oat meal that was used in this recipe
  • 3. In a large bowl add flour, oatmeal, baking powder, baking soda, & salt then stir to blend. Original recipe said to pulverize mixture in a food processor, but I wanted to keep the texture, and omitted this step.
  • 4. In a separate bowl add both sugars and softened butter, and beat till creamy, then add eggs one at a time and beat well after each addition.
  • 5. Then add cream liqueur, vanilla & peppermint extract & about 1/3 of flour & beat till blended.
  • 6. Add remaining flour mixture in 2 increments,with mixer set to low setting. until all has been added.
  • 7. Now add in raisins, nuts and chocolate chunks and stir with a large spoon to mix well.
  • 8. Refrigerate till batter is firm. I left batter in fridge till the next morning, then cut dough into large chunk size pieces.
  • 9. Place on prepared cookie sheet, and bake in preheated 350 degreeF. oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
  • 10. Allow to cool then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
  • 11. Serve with cold milk or IRISH COFFEE.
