RAISIN-DATE-OATMEAL COOKIES
This is something I came up with as a teenager (a LONG time ago lol). None of the oatmeal cookie recipes I tried gave me the result i wanted so I played around with them and came up with this one. The yield depends on how large you make the cookies, I used to make big ones so they would be chewier in the middle. Using shortening also makes them chewier. Sometimes I use half shortening and half butter. I also used to double this recipe because my family of four would GOBBLE them up. A double recipe might last for a few days at least lol.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Beat butter, sugars, eggs, molasses and vanilla together until well combined.
- Sift together dry ingredients.
- Add to butter mixture and combine thoroughly.
- Stir in oats, raisins and dates.
- Drop onto well greased cookie sheets.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, until edges are browned and centers are somewhat firm.
- Cool a few minutes on the cookie sheet before removing. These firm up a bit as they cool. This can be a bit tricky. Remove them too soon and they mush together, too late and the edges may stick to the cookie sheet.
