    From Cuisine Magazine with some of my own tweaks, this recipe is constantly requested by my husband's co-workers. So, guys, now you can make it yourselves and you don't have to share!

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups all-purpose flour (for a somewhat healthier version you can subsitute 1/2 cup with whole wheat flour)
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla
    • 3 cups oats (not instant)
    • 1 1/2 cups raisins
    • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optinal)

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350
    2. Whisk dry ingredients; set aside.
    3. Combine wet indgredients with a hand mixer on low.
    4. To cream, increase speed to high and beat until fluffy and the color lightens.
    5. Stir the flour mixture into the creamed mixture until no flour is visible.
    6. (over mixing developes the gluten, making a tough cookie.) Now add the oats and raisins (chocolate chips if desired); stir to incorporate.
    7. Fill cookie scoop with dough. ( #40 cookie scoop or about 2 tablespoons of dough)
    8. Drop 2 inches apart on baking sheet with non stick spray (I prefer using parchment paper)
    9. Bake 11-13 (on center rack), until golden, but still moist beneath cracks on top.
    10. Remove from oven; let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
