Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 c raisins
1/2 c dark rum
1/2 c butter
3/4 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp molasses
1/2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 3/4 c old fashioned oats

Steps:

  • 1. in a small sauce pan, beat raisins and rum to a boil over medium high heat, cover and remove from heat.
  • 2. allow to rest for 30-45 minutes for raisins to absorb the rum.
  • 3. preheat oven to 350. line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • 4. in a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until uniform.
  • 5. beat in the egg, vanilla extract and molasses.
  • 6. gradually beat in flour, baking soda, salt and oats. stir in the raisins (and any remaining rum that did not get absorbed).
  • 7. drop by tablespoons onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes (the cookies may appear darker in color from the molasses, this does not necessarily mean that they have browned).
  • 8. allow to rest for a few minutes on the baking sheet and remove to a cooling rack to cool completely.
