       The Best Oatmeal Cookies Ever!
       By: NewHomeowner Date: June 26, 2018, 2:46 pm

       Here's the recipe that my friend gave to me.
       As she said, 'It's got oatmeal, dark chocolate, raisins,
       cranberries, and nuts!  It's practically health food!'
       Best Oatmeal Cookies Ever!
       1/2 lb(1 cup)
       1 cup
       1/2 cup
       2 
       1 tsp
       1 1/2 cups
       1 tsp
       1 tsp
       1/2 tsp
       3 cups
       1 cup
       cranberries
       (note: I’ve added up to 1 1/2 cups with no problem)
       Standard mix method:
       Cream butter/sugar.
       Add eggs and vanilla, beat well.
       Combine dry ingredients.
       Add to creamed mixture
       Stir in all the add-ins.
       Drop by rounded tablespoons.
       Bake 10-12 minutes in 350 degree oven on ungreased (or parchment
       lined) cookie sheet
       Cool on wire rack.
       Store in airtight container.
       Note:  I’ve noticed that 14 minutes seems to work better for me.
       
       * Brown sugar makes a chewier cookie, or use all white sugar and
       add molasses – 1 Tablespoon of molasses per cup of white sugar

       Thank you so much for posting this - I must have a go after
       we're back from our trip.  I love dried cranberries - the more
       the better, so it might be cranberry oatmeal cookies for us.

       my favorite oatmeal raisin recipe calls for soaking the raisins
       for an hour in the beaten eggs. The problem is, when I decide to
       make the cookies, I don't plan ahead enough time to do that.
