The Best Ever Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 eggs well beaten (can use egg-beaters)
1 c. raisins
1 tsp. vanilla (I usually use a little over a tsp.)
1 c. butter
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. white sugar
2 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking soda
2 c. oatmeal (substitute 1/2 c. wheat germ for more healthy cookies)
3/4 c. chopped nuts

Preparation

Combine eggs, raisins and vanilla.
COVER AND LET STAND FOR 1 HOUR.
Cream together butter and sugars.
Add flour, salt, cinnamon and soda.
Mix well.
Blend in egg-raisin mixture; oatmeal, wheat germ and chopped nuts.
Dough will be stiff.
With a tablespoon or cookie scoop, scoop out a ball shape amount.
Put on cookie sheet. Press down just a little to flatten dough a little.
Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
Makes about 6 dozen, depending on the size you make.
