Title: Commercial-Style Oatmeal, Chocolate Chip, Raisin Cookies
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 30 servings
1 c Unsalted butter
; at room temperature
1 1/2 c Light brown sugar; firmly
-packed
1/2 c White sugar
1 lg Egg
2 ts Vanilla extract
1 ts Butterscotch extract
1 ts Baking soda
3/8 ts Salt
1/4 ts Cinnamon
1 c All-purpose flour
2 c Rolled oatmeal
1 c Golden raisins; plumped in
-water,

1 1/2 c Chocolate chips
1/2 c Pecan pieces; (optional)
Recipe by: The Washington Post 10/30/96 Line two baking sheets with
parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cream the butter with both sugars until well blended. Stir in the egg and
the vanilla and butterscotch extracts. Fold in the baking soda, salt,
cinnamon, flour and oatmeal. Incorporate the raisins, chocolate chips and
pecan pieces.
Form into rounds the size of golf balls and place 3 inches apart on the
baking sheets, pressing down slightly.
Bake until just light brown around the edges, about 14 to 16 minutes. Do
not overbake these cookies -- they may seem a little underdone but will
crisp as they cool. Cool on racks. (Makes about 2 1/2 dozen).
* NOTE: For chocolate-chunk oatmeal cookies, omit the raisins and add 2
cups coarsely chopped imported chocolate pieces, or use half raisins, half
chocolate chunks.
Recipe from Marcy Goldman, a professional baker and food writer based in
Montreal.
