I told you that I like to bake! This is an old, but good recipe for these cookies. The “new” twist with these are the added ingredients: chocolate chips and molasses. I started making these cookies for a pharmacist friend of ours and after a couple batches he requested that I add the chocolate chips and molasses. He actually gave me a jar of molasses just to make sure that I would remember to add it 🙂 !
2 sticks butter
1 cup brown sugar
3 TBSP. molasses ( optional)
2tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 cups old fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups raisins
1 cup chocolate chips ( optional )
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingrediants into a large mixing bowl. Place dough on cookie sheet 1 or 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 – 12 minutes
Serves: approx. 3-4 dozen
