I tend to weigh the cookies out to 85g each (slightly smaller than the NYC cookies, but you can make them even smaller or bigger if you wish) – and then squish them down slightly to about 2cm thick – then I freeze them for 30 minutes before baking. I use plain flour, and add in baking powder – but you can use 150g of self raising, and remove the baking powder from the recipe! One thing that is different with these, is I do find you have to squish the cookie slightly before baking. You can sub the sugars for dark brown sugar too – but generally I avoid caster sugar when it comes to cookies these days as I find it can spread too much! For the best texture, I recommend the granulated/soft sugar sizes! Flour You can use all light brown sugar, or all white granulated sugar! Combine the flour, oats, baking soda and salt gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Like my other cookies, I love the two different sugars in the mix – the light brown sugar gives a lovely flavour, and the granulated sugar is ideal for the cookie. Cover with boiling water let stand for 5 minutes. The raisins give a softer texture, just like you would get with chocolate chips (side note, if you don’t like raisins, you can use chocolate chips in them!). The texture for these is lovely and soft, but the outside is quite chewy – and that’s the best thing ever. I’ve seen varying recipes for these over the years, with some using far more oats, and some using far less – but I found my personal favourite was a 50/50 mix! You get enough oats for that delicious flavour, but also enough flour to make sure it remains a good cookie! Oh-So-Good Oatmeal Raisin Cookies 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted and cooled 4 tablespoons safflower oil 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 large egg. The base remains very similar, but some of the flour has been removed and replaced with oats! Cover with boiling water let stand for 5 minutes. The recipe is basically very very similar to my NYC cookies, because this is essentially just an oat & raisin version of them. Also, these have cinnamon in which can be just as controversial! Anyway… Recipe I will of course get comments saying “eIt’s amazing.
