Ingredients

  • all-purpose flour

    spooned and leveled

    1 c
  • baking soda
    ½ tsp
  • salt
    ¼ tsp
  • unsalted butter

    at room temperature

    ½ c
  • granulated sugar
    ¼ c
  • packed light or dark brown sugar
    ½ c
  • egg
    1 large
  • vanilla extract
    1 ½ tsp
  • old-fashioned rolled oats
    1 ¼ c
  • semi-sweet chocolate chips
    ½ c
  • raisins
    ½ c

Directions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt, and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, using an electric mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, cream the butter, sugar, and brown sugar on medium-high speed for about 2-3 minutes. Then, add the egg and vanilla and mix for about 1 minute, until creamy and well combined. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until incorporated, about 30-60 seconds. Stir in the oats just until combined. Then add the chocolate chips and raisins and mix just until well distributed. Cover and chill for 1 hour.

  3. 3

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

  4. 4

    Scoop 16 equal-sized balls (about 2 tablespoons [45g]) of cookie dough, roll into even balls, and place 6-8 cookies, about 3 inches (7.5 cm) apart, on each prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly with your fingers. Bake one sheet at a time for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are set and lightly browned and the centers look underbaked, pale, puffy, and dry.

  5. 5

    Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, or until firm enough to move. Then, transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. The cookies will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
