Oat and Raisin cookies.

Hey. Hope everyone's well on this chilly Sunday evening. 

Got a little scrummy treat to share with you all. 

Oat and raisin cookies have always been my favourite and I didn't realise how easy they actually were.  

I took this recipe from Nigella.com. 

It states 'serves 6-8' but as you can see from the pictures, it looks like they can feed more like 60-80! 

Ingredients

¾ cup sugar

¼ cup brown sugar

½ cup softened butter

½ teaspoon vanilla

1 egg

¾ cup all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon salt

1 ½ cups rolled oats

½ cup raisins

1- Preheat oven 190C/gas 5/375F and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.

2- In a large bowl, combine sugars and butter and beat until light and fluffy.

3- Add the vanilla and egg and blend well.

4- Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt then mix well.

5- Stir in the oats and raisins. 

6- Make balls from the approx 2cm across and place them on a baking tray 2 inches apart.  Press down slightly. 

7- Bake for 7-10 minutes until edges are a light golden brown colour. Cool for 1 minute then remove to a rack and let cool completely.

Nothing more to it than that guys. And they are absolutely delicious.  Going to keep my friends and family happy all week I think.
