Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

My husband's favorite: Oatmeal Raisin Cookies :) These are delicious and very easy to make. If you like them chewy, make sure you do not over-bake them!

 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, softened                                        

1/2 cup vegetable shortening (or try coconut oil for a healthier substitute)                                                                  

1 cup packed light brown sugar                                                                     

1/2 cup white sugar                                                                     

2 eggs                                                                     

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract                                                                     

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour                                                                     

1 teaspoon baking soda                                                                     

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon                                                                     

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves                                                                     

1/2 teaspoon salt                                                                     

3 cups rolled oats                                                                     

1 cup raisins

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, brown sugar, white sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt; stir into the sugar mixture. Stir in the oats and raisins. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake 10 to 12 minutes until light and golden. Do not over-bake! Let them cool for 2 minutes before removing from cookie sheets to cool completely. Store in airtight container.
