CHOCOLATE-COVERED RAISIN AND OATMEAL COOKIES

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
2 cups flour
1 container (22 oz.) chocolate covered raisins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In an electric mixer fitted with a paddle, cream the butter and sugars. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat until smooth. Add the vanilla and oatmeal and mix until blended.

Sift together the salt, baking powder, baking soda, and flour. Gradually add to the creamed ingredients. Remove the bowl and stir in the raisins with a large spoon or spatula.

With an ice cream scoop, form golf-ball sized scoops of dough and drop them 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake until lightly browned and still soft, about 8 minutes. Do not overbake. Allow to cool slightly and remove to a wire rack; cool completely.

Makes 40 large cookies.
