Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 Cups Raisins
  • 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 Cups Oats
  • 1/2 Cup White Sugar
  • 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda

  • Add all of the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
  • Using a 3 tbsp cookie scoop (or 2 1.5 tbsp scoops and your hands), form balls of cookie dough and place 6 at a time on the baking sheet, evenly spaced apart.

  • Enjoy!

Notes

325 or 350 (Fahrenheit), that is the question! From our experience, 15 minutes at 325 Fahrenheit for a 3-inch scoop cookie led to a crisper exterior and a softer center. 12 minutes 350 Fahrenheit for a 3-inch scoop cookie, however, led to a chewier cookie throughout and more browning. With that being said, if we weren’t specifically paying attention, we could probably eat both cookies and not notice the temperature difference effects! Both have softness and plenty of chew.
