Sunday afternoon Creative Cookiez





What a lazy Sunday! After a long walk with Cooper, yes the rain started hindering our goals to get in the garden. So instead it was a lazy day to read, knit and bake. Dave made these amazing cookies- chocolate chip raisin oatmeal cookies.-Yummy and healthy!





Oh and yes a cup of tea was enjoyed with the yummy cookies.

Here is the recipe adapted from a standard oatmeal recipe.

*  1/2 cups  or more chocolate chips
* 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
* 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 1/4 cups old-fashioned oats, not instant or quick-cook used oatmeal with flax seed and other yummy ingredients
* 1/4 cup water
*  1/2 cups  brown sugar
* 1/2 cup butter, softened at room temperature or micrwave to help
*1/2 cup or what you desire Raisins
350 for oven on greased cookie sheet
Directions:
 Cream butter and sugar and then add dry ingredients and lastly chocolate chips and raisins.

 We freeze half the dough in a tube shape in baking paper to make fresh another time. It also keeps you from eating too many at once.
