Makes for a great holiday cookie but also a cookie for anytime of the year - especially lunch boxes. Sometimes I skip the raisins and just add in chopped walnuts or dried cranberries for an even more unique flavor. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup butter, softened |
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 egg |
2 tablespoons milk |
1 (11 1/2 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1 cup quick-cooking oats |
1/2 cup raisins (dried cranberries work great too) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F
2. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt - mix with a whisk.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, sugar and vanilla until creamy.
4. Beat in the egg.
5. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mix well.
6. Add the milk and blend completely.
7. Stir in the chocolate chips, oats and raisins.
8. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
9. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are crisp.
10. Let cool for 3-5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
