Makes: 18 - 24 cookies

Prep:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (172 degrees C) and place a piece or parchment paper on a large baking sheet.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup unsalted butter - room temperature

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 1/4 cup rolled oats

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

200 grams chocolate covered raisins

Instructions

- Step 1 - Cream the Butter

In a large bowl, cream the 1/2 cup of butter.

- Step 2 - Cream in the Sugar

Add the 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the butter and mix until fluffy.

- Step 3 - Add the Wet Ingredients

Add the 1 egg and the 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture and mix until just combined.

- Step 4 - Add Most of the Dried Ingredients

Add the 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the batter.

And mix until just combined.

Do not over mix.

- Step 5 - Add the Oats

Add the 1 1/4 cup of oats to the batter and mix using a spatula.

Add the 200 grams of chocolate covered raisins and mix without using a mixer.

I recommend mixing it with your hands - it is a lot easier.

Roll pieces of dough into a ball that is about the size of 1 tablespoon and place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake the cookies for about 10-15 minutes until they are golden brown.
