Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2/3 cup sugar; 2/3 cup brown sugar, packed; 1 cup light butter, softened; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 2 eggs; 3 cups oats (or 3 1/2 cups if using instant oatmeal as-is); 1 cup all-purpose flour; 1 cup raisins

Servings: persons

2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1 cup light butter, softened
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
3 cups oats (or 3 1/2 cups if using instant oatmeal as-is)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup raisins

1
Preheat oven to 375u00b0F.
2
If using good quality instant oatmeal, you may want to use the oatmeal packets in their entirety. If the flavor of the non-oat part of the oatmeal isn't to your liking, then empty each packet and pick out the dried fruit. Then, run the oatmeal through a sieve to separate the oats from the flavoring.
3
In a large bowl, beat all ingredients except oats, flour and raisins with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with a wooden spoon.
4
Stir in oats, flour and raisins.
5
If using oatmeal packets in their entirety instead of just the oats, allow the mixture to rest for 10 minutes to allow the dried fruit and other ingredients to fully rehydrate.
6
On UNGREASED cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart.
7
Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until light brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack or sheets of paper towel.
