Bettina's Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Kate has inspired some of us to bake and test taste oatmeal cookies...here's the recipe for the yummy cookies Bettina brought into work on Friday, March 16.

1/3 cup white sugar
1 1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter
2 eggs
2 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
1 2/3 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
2 2/3 cup oats
1 1/3 cup raisins (or 1/2 raisins/1/2 chocolate chips)

Mix sugars and butter together until foamy. Add eggs. Mix dry ingredients and add to sugar/butter/egg mixture. Don't over beat the dough, just barely mix ingredients. Add raisins (and chocolate chips) and fold in, again don't over mix. Drop spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake at 375F for about 8-10 minutes depending on how chewy you would like the cookies.

Transfer from baking sheet after a 1 minute rest to a cooling rack to cool.
