Oatmeal Craison Cookies


Oatmeal raisin cookies USED to be my favorite until I made these. You could use raisons instead of craisons. Try both and tell me what you think. Either way they are delicious!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
1 C softened butter
 1 C packed brown sugar
 3/4 C granulated sugar
 2 tsp vanilla
 2 eggs
• beat butter, sugars and vanilla until light
• add eggs and beat until blended

1 1/4 C flour
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
• combine these ingredients and gradually add to the butter mixture until well blended. 

3 C old fashioned oats
1 1/2 C craisons
• stir in oats and craisons

For giant cookies, drop 1/4 cupfulls onto cookie sheet. Bake 14-17 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Do not over bake. Let sit for 3 minutes before transfering to cooling rack. 

For regular cookies, drop tsp-fulls on cookie sheet and bake 10-12 minutes or until edges are brown. Let stand for 3 minutes before transferring to coolong rack.
