Oatmeal & Raisin Cookies
What better way to unwind on a particularly spring like Tuesday than to bake? And bake I did. I made these delightfully sweet cookies and the batch makes 24 so it's perfect for visiting friends or relatives without showing up empty handed.
1) Preheat oven to 180C and line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
2) Beat 150g unsalted butter (Nuttelex in my instance) and 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar with electric beaters until thick and pale.
3) Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 egg and beat until well combined.
4) Sift 1 cup plain flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder and a pinch of salt into butter mixture and beat slowly until well combined.
5) Stir in 200g rolled oats and 1 cup raisins.
6) Spoon mixture on prepared trays and bake for 12 minutes until golden. Cool on trays for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in airtight container for 3-4 days (if the last that long).
These little treats are addictive, you've been warned.
