I love a soft and chewy cookie. Maybe a little crispy on the outside edges but definitely moist and chewy in the middle. My Mom used to always store her cookie dough overnight in the refrigerator because she said it always gives you a better tasting and softer cookie. You could always find several batches of cookie dough in our refrigerator and every now and then she would let us pinch off a little and eat it! You will love these cookies!
Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
¼ cup +
2 tablespoons Star Fine Foods Butter Flavored Olive Oil
⅔ cup light brown sugar,
packed
1 large
egg
1
teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup
all-purpose flour
½
teaspoon baking soda
½
teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼
teaspoon salt
1½ cups
old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup raisins
1/4 cup pecans, chopped
In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, brown sugar, egg, and
vanilla with a stand or hand mixer until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and
salt together. Add the wet and dry mixtures together and then stir in the oats, raisins and nuts. Transfer dough to a sheet of plastic wrap and
form a ball. Wrap and chill in the refrigerator for overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Using a scoop, measure out 2 inch balls of chilled cookie dough and
arrange on the cookie sheet leaving two inches between each ball. Flatten the dough ball just a bit with your
fingers.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the
center looks slightly undercooked. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the warm
baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
