Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, cold
  • 1.5 cups Light Brown Sugar, packed
  • 0.5 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1.5 cups Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 2 cups Raisins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Place the cold butter in the microwave for 10-15 seconds until it reaches about 70°F for easier mixing.
  • Cream the softened butter with both sugars on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until it looks like thick sand.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Beat the mixture until all is well combined and smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda. Stir well and then slowly add to the wet mixture on low speed until a dough forms.
  • Gently fold in the raisins before the dough becomes too stiff.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scoop the dough using a large cookie scoop and place each ball on the sheet, maintaining about 2 inches of space between them.
  • Bake the cookies for 11-13 minutes until the centers are slightly underbaked.
  • Let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Chill the dough for 30 minutes for better flavor and texture.
  • Use fresh raisins for optimal chewiness.
  • Bake in the middle rack for even heat distribution.
