Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 2 Dozen, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup water
1 cup raisins
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Crisco shortening
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal (not instant)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Whisk eggs in a small bowl, add 1/4 cup water, 1 tsp vanilla and raisins; mix well. VERY IMPORTANT let set on counter for at least 1 hour.
  • In another bowl, combine crisco, and sugars, mix well.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients.
  • Blend in raisin mixture -- mix well.
  • I use a cookie scoop, slightly less than 1/4 cup and place them on a greased cookie sheet. I slightly flatten them with the back of the scoop.
  • Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Do not flatten cookies a lot -- just a gentle tap.other wise they will flatten out too much.
  • Baking note: please remember to reverse position of cookie sheets halfway through baking. DO NOT OVER BAKE. Cookies should be slightly golden brown around edges. Centers will look set-- let cool 1 minute on cookie sheet and then remove to wire rack to complete cool.
  • I have used this recipe for over 30 years-- always outstanding-- most important thing to remove cookies from oven before they are finished-- residual heat in cookies will complete cooking-- and result in a cookie that is not dried out.
  • I also add more walnuts, as I like lots of big nuts in my oatmeal cookies-- I have often left the egg, raisin mixture on counter, for a couple of hours while cleaning house and came back and baked marvelous cookies.

THE WORLD'S BEST OATMEAL TOFFEE COOKIES



The World's Best Oatmeal Toffee Cookies image

The softest, chewiest, sweetest oatmeal cookies with the decadent addition of toffee bits. One thing to consider before making this recipe is that the cookies are a tab bit thin and are not sturdy. I still need to alter it, but if you make the dough balls a little taller and less round, they should turn out just fine. The flavor is AMAZING. Recipe from "The Cookie Bible" cookbook.

Tips for the Best Oatmeal Cookies:

- **Use room temperature butter:** This will help your cookies spread better and give them a chewier texture. - **Cream the butter and sugars together thoroughly:** This will help to incorporate air into the mixture and make your cookies light and fluffy. - **Don't overmix the dough:** Overmixing can make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - **Chill the dough before baking:** Chilling the dough will help your cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much. - **Bake the cookies at the right temperature:** The ideal temperature for baking oatmeal cookies is 375 degrees Fahrenheit. - **Don't overbake the cookies:** Overbaking can make your cookies dry and crumbly. Bake them just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still soft. - **Let the cookies cool completely before storing them:** This will help them to set and keep their shape.
