I found this recipe from Sugar Cooking Blog who actually found the recipe from Journey to Crunchville Blog and it was super easy. I made a slight variation of sifting the dry ingredients (just a habit of mine) i just think it makes everything taste a little lighter :) my recipe made a total of 29 small cookies and 10 large cookies. also a large pet peeve of mine is when cookies become thin and crispy but these are light and fluffy!! LOVE IT!
Recipe:1 c Butter, room temp 1 1/2 c Flour
1 c Brown Sugar 1 tsp Salt
3/4 c White Sugar 1 tsp Baking Soda
2 Eggs, well beaten 2 tsp Cinnamon
1 Tbsp Vanilla 1/2 tsp Ginger
3 c Oatmeal (not Instant) 1/2 tsp Nutmeg
1 c Raisins

Directions:
Preheat to 350 F
Cream butter and sugars with mixer. In a seperate bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda, cinammon, ginger & nutmeg. Stir the dry ingredients until well blended. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture and mix well. Now add in the egg & raisin mixture (I used my hands). Then add oatmeal and chocolate chips/nuts and combine well. Form into balls on cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Let cool on cookie sheet for 2-5 minutes or until firm enough to transfer to wire rack.
Made about 2 1/2 dozen cookies for me and I made them pretty big. You could get 4 dozen if you make them small.
Look at you posting new goodies!!! I'm glad you posted these oatmeal cookies. They're Shawn's favorite cookie and I haven't found a recipe that works for me yet. I'll have to give this one a try! :)
