I had a morning appointment at Redo in Franklin (if you haven’t been, go now — love them) today and, as I am wont to do, brought The Kiddo with me. Fortunately he travels well, especially when the iPod is loaded up with Super Why. Know what else travels well? These cookies! I can neither confirm nor deny that they are lovely for breakfast sandwiched around a healthy smear of peanut butter.
This varies just a bit from the recipe on the Craisin bag, so here ’tis:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups oats
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 bag Craisins
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
To make the goodness:
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Beat butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla for 5 minutes at medium speed till mixture is light and fluffy
- Combine dry ingredients in a second bowl and add to butter mixture one cup at a time, mixing till just incorporated
- Stir in Craisins and white chocolate chips
- Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto nonstick or greased cookie sheets and bake for about 10 minutes until they’re just starting to brown around the edges
- Cool on cookie sheets for 2 minutes, then move to wire rack to completely cool
This makes about 5 dozen, and they freeze beautifully! Enjoy!
Dear One Particular Kitchen,
Are you telling me I must make these and eat them with peanut butter for breakfast? Well, I guess if you insist. I will make sure and let my husband know it is all your fault.
Love,
