Cranberries chocolate chips oatmeal cookies


I made this to day , I got the recipe from my cousin in Los Angeles, thanks Ran.

I change the raisin with dried cranberries. The recipe originally from Quaker oats.


Ingredients:


3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 c. granulated sugar

1 egg

1 stick butter

1 tsp. vanilla

1 1/2 c. all purpose flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt (opt.)

3 c. Quaker Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)


Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Beat together butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and spices; add to butter mixture, mixing well. Stir in oats. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 9 minutes for a chewy cookie, 10 to 11 minutes for a crisp cookie. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet; remove to wire cooling rack. Store in tightly covered container. 4 1/2 dozen.


OATMEAL COOKIE SQUARES: Press dough onto bottom of ungreased 13"x9" pan. Bake about 25 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely; cut into 1 1/2" squares. Store in tightly covered container. 4 dozen.


VARIATIONS: Add any one or combination of two of the following ingredients, if desired: 1 cup raisins, chopped nuts, or semi sweet chocolate, butterscotch or peanut butter flavored pieces.
