I took a chewy Cape Cod version of an oatmeal cookie recipe and substituted cranberries for the raisins, and added a few extra spices. A favorite at my house and easy to make! (These are a very chunky cookie.)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 -2 dash nutmeg
1 whole egg, slightly beaten
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup melted shortening
1 tablespoon molasses
1/4 cup milk
1 3/4 cups uncooked oatmeal
1/2 cup ocean spray dried sweetened cranberries
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350*.
2. Mix flour, soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg together in a large bowl.
3. Add remaining ingredients and mix together well.
4. Drop by spoonful on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 12 minutes.
5. Cool for 2 minutes and enjoy!
6. (These are also very fab with dried cherries and chocolate chips! YUM!).
