Jan's Cookies
When ever I stop at my brother's house his wife offers me a treat. I never turn her down because she always has the tastiest treats. Last time I went it was these cookies. All I can say is YUMMMMMM. It's basically your favorite oatmeal cookie with craisins and white chocolate chips added in. For convenience sake here is her recipe.
1 C butter (or 1/2 shortening and 1/2 c butter/margarine)
3/4 C brown sugar
3/4 C white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp soda
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 C oatmeal
2+ c flour
coconut, nuts, raisins, craisins, chocolate chips, white chips or what ever you prefer to add in.
Heat oven to 350. Cream butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well. Add soda, salt and flour, then add oatmeal, mix. Fold in whatever you want to flavor, craisins and white chips is a good choice. Drop by large spoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes, until barely browned. Let cool slightly before enjoying. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
