Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs*
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract (yes, Tablespoon!)
1 Tablespoon molasses
1 and 1/2 cups (188g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups (240g) old-fashioned whole rolled oats*
1 cup (140g) raisins*
optional: 1/2 cup (64g) chopped toasted walnuts

Steps:

  • Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and both sugars together on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and mix on high until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Add the vanilla and molasses and mix on high until combined. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together. Add to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. Beat in the oats, raisins, and walnuts (if using) on low speed. Dough will be thick, yet very sticky. Chill the dough for 30-60 minutes in the refrigerator (do the full hour if you're afraid of the cookies spreading too much). If chilling for longer (up to 2 days), allow to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  • Roll balls of dough (about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie) and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. I recommend using a cookie scoop since the dough can be sticky. Bake for 12-14 minutes until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft and under-baked. Remove from the oven and let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will continue to "set" on the baking sheet during this time.

NANCY'S DELICIOUS OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Nancy's Delicious Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by cacelias

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 c flour
2 c oatmeal (up to 1 c more)
2 c Rice Krispies (up to 1 c more)
1 t baking soda
1/2 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
1 c butter, softened
1 c white sugar (slightly less ok)
1 c firmly packed brown sugar
2 egg, slightly beaten
1 t vanilla extract
Raisins or choc chips as desired

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Combine first 6 ingredients. Cream butter; gradually add sugars, beating until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla: mix well. Gradually stir in dry ingredients, mixing well after each addition. Stir in raisins or chips, if using. Don't use too many; tastes best with just a few. Roll the balls big because there's not much dough to rise with all the Rice Krispies and oatmeal in them. We like these cookies best when they are thick. Always make one test cookie. If it flattens out too much, add more oatmeal and Rice Krispies. Let cookies sit on tray to finish baking. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes.
