Chewy Oatmeal Date Raisin Cookies Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by AllysKitchen

Number Of Ingredients 18

3/4 cups butter, room temperature
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoons ground cinnamon (I used Saigon cinnamon.)
1 teaspoons ground Jamaican allspice (You can use regular allspice.)
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon round nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups old fashioned oats
1/2 cup steel cut oats
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1/2 cup dates, diced
3/4 cup golden raisins

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together well the butter and brown and white sugar. Add the eggs and beat about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and spices and blend well. Add the milk to the batter. Sift together the flour, baking powder and baking soda and add one-third of this dry mixture at a time to the wet mixture blending well. Add the oats and work into the batter. Finally, add the nuts, dates, and raisins. Using a spring-form scoop, dollop the batter on to a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Do not crowd cookies giving about 2-3" space between each. Bake in preheated 350°F oven about 10 minutes. Repeat with all the batter. Let cool and eat. (Note: These also make a cute mini-muffin using cupcake liners if you want.)
