These cookies that I adapted from another recipe call to mind ones my mother used to bake. Instead of stirring in raisins like she did, though, I add bright red cranberries for festive flair. Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter, softened |
2/3 cup brown sugar |
2 eggs |
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/2 cups old-fashioned oats |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1-1/4 cups dried cranberries |
1 cup chopped pecans, toasted |
2/3 cup vanilla or white chips |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream butter and brown sugar. Add eggs; mix well. Combine the dry ingredients; gradually add to the creamed mixture. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Drop by tablespoonfuls 3-in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: about 4 dozen. |
