Oatmeal cookie lovers will love this homemade version, made with dark raisins and molasses, which imparts a rich, caramel-like flavor. The cookies remain soft inside even after cooling. They're made with a mixture of rolled oats and wheat flour. No need to grind the oats; simply mix the dough in a bowl and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. Bake the oatmeal cookies on two baking sheets at once, then cool completely before serving.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a large bowl, combine the oats, flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the butter, sugar, and molasses with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth, about 2 minutes more. Reduce mixer speed to low, add the flour mixture, and mix until smooth. Fold in the raisins with a spatula. For a better cookie texture, cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  2. Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Form the dough into 12 balls, about 2 tablespoons each, and place them 3 inches (7 cm) apart on the prepared baking sheets. Flatten with the back of a fork. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
