Equipment

  • electric mixer
  • cookie sheets

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup butter room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar lightly packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 ¼ cup rolled oats not quick oats
  • 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • ½ cup sultana raisins

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Add butter and sugars to a mixing bowl or bowl of stand mixer, and beat until light and fluffly (about 2 minutes).
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing between each. Add vanilla with the last egg and mix well.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together oats, flour, baking soda, salt and spices until well combined; add to butter mixture and mix on low speed just until combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and raisins just until combined.
  • Scoop out dough onto cookie sheets leaving room between as they will spread out. Bake at 350 degrees for 9 to 11 minutes, just until edges begin to brown.
  • Remove from oven and transfer to a cooling rack to cool. Drizzle with melted chocolate if desired.

Notes

Use a large cookie scoop for nice big cookies. It should hold about 3 to 3 1/2 tabespoons of dough.
Don't overbake. Bake just until edges and bottom of cookie are golden.
