SOFT-BAKED OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

"This is a double-batch, so freeze some for later! :)"

2 cups butter, softened
2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
3 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. salt (optional)
6 cups quick-cooking oats, uncooked
2 cups raisins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Add combined flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; mix well.

Stir in oats and raisins; mix well. Use a 1 1/2 tbsp. measure for each cookie, and drop onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven for 10 to 11 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Makes 6 dozen (72) nice-sized cookies
