These are super soft oatmeal cookes that stay moist and chewy. This is a big recipe, but you can stick what you don't want in the freezer for another day. You can also freeze the dough.
Ingredients
- 1 C butter shopping list
- 1 C canola oil (or vegetable oil...just trying to be heart healthy) shopping list
- 2 C brown sugar (packed) shopping list
- 1 C raw turbinado sugar (you can use the white stuff if you want to) shopping list
- 4 eggs shopping list
- 1 TBSP pure vanilla extract (artificial extract is ok, but not the same) shopping list
- 3 C all purpose flour (wheat flour works good too) shopping list
- add an extra 1/2 C of flour for high elevations shopping list
- 2 tsp cinnamon powder shopping list
- 1 tsp salt shopping list
- 2 tsp baking soda shopping list
- 6 cups rolled oats (I do like the Quaker Oats the best) shopping list
- 12 oz of chocolate chips or raisins (or a combination of both) shopping list
- you can add chopped nuts if you want to...about a cup shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
- Cream together butter, oil, and sugar, until fluffy
- Add brown sugar, mix well
- Add eggs and vanilla, beat well
- Scrape sides of bowl
- Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, combine well
- Add oats and chocolate chips (or raisins) and mix until combined
- Add nuts, if using
- Using a small or medium cookie dough scoop, place rounded cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 6 or 7 minutes
- Make them about 1 inch balls if not using a cookie scoop
- (don't over bake...the middle should still be nice and gooey when the cookies are hot)
- When they are slightly golden around the edges, remove from oven
- Cool 1 minute and place the cookies on a wire rack to finish cooling
- Store in an airtight container when cooled
- Makes about 8 dozen
