Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat. Set aside.

Step 2

Cream the butter with the brown and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add in eggs and vanilla, and mix on low speed to combine.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients, and then add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix. Stir in raisins until combined.

Step 5

Cover and chill dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 24 equal-sized balls. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet with 1-2 inches between balls of dough. Press balls down with the bottom of a glass.

Step 7

Tip: To keep the dough from sticking to the glass, wet the bottom of the glass before pressing down on the dough.

Step 8

Place in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
