Recipe: Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Remember this post about all the oatmeal and raisins I have?

Well, I made the recipe, and it was a hit! My kiddos LOVED them, my husband LOVED them, my husband's co-workers LOVED them. A single guy asked for the recipe.

These are true oatmeal raisin cookies. Personally, I'd prefer a bit of cinnamon in them (maybe 1/2 teaspoon), but my husband insists they are perfect as is.

I used quick oats, since I didn't have "rolled oats." They worked just fine. I also made 24 cookies (you know, so I didn't have to shuffle pans and wait and what have you) and cooked them for the maximum time. Perfect.

They were SO good that I went ahead and ordered the cookbook. Amazon is offering Amazon Prime 2-Day Shipping for FREE for three months, so I'm all over that (just need to remember to discontinue it before they charge me $79 for the year).

Here are my cookies: I am a HUGE fan of parchment paper. My cookies sheets look fabulous after four years of use!
