Oatmeal Cookies Three Ways
Serves 18
Oatmeal cookies are one of my personal favorites. Everyone at Casa Linda enjoys a good homemade cookie. We all have our favorite cookies and I try to alternate baking everyone's favorite cookie. It is important to keep the troops happy. This time I baked my personal favorite, oatmeal raisin. My husband Ted loves oatmeal cookies with cream cheese frosting. I forget when he first introduced me to the idea. The truth is that they are great with cream cheese frosting. I love a traditional raisin oatmeal cookie and my children love them with chocolate chips. They don't care for the chewy raisins. So to please everyone I divided the dough in half. I added chocolate chips to half and raisins to the other half. I frosted half the raisin oatmeal cookies with the prepared cream cheese frosting and served the rest plain. So in the end everyone got what they wanted. So there you have it, one recipe three different cookies. Everyone was happy. I think this is an outstanding cookie recipe. For the real serious bakers out there, please let me know what you think. And to my dear friend Sarah, thank you for sharing your fresh eggs, they made the cookies even better! I love hearing from you. Please comment below or follow me on Facebook & Pinterest for more great cooking tips and recipes. Bon Appetit, Cecelia
