Favorite Oatmeal Cookies

These are our families favorite oatmeal cookies. The recipe comes from the Quaker oatmeal boxes. I like to use whole wheat flour instead of white flour.

1 c butter, softened
1 c firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
1 t vanilla
1 1/2 c flour
1 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t salt
3 c oatmeal
1 c raisins

Cream together the butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and beat well. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well. Stir in oatmeal and raisins.

Bake on ungreased cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees.

(For bar cookies bake in ungreased 9x13 pan for 30-35 minutes).
