Oatmeal Cookies

Sooooo incredibly easy... my favorite kinds of recipes are simple, affordable, and delicious. These cookies fall into that category. My husband loves oatmeal raisin cookies, so I figured, since I had all the ingredients of typical oatmeal cookies in the house, I would make him some today. I started searching online for an easy recipe and struck gold when I landed on this bad boy on Cooks.com:

Bisquick Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

2 cups quick cooking oats
1 and 1/2 cups Bisquick
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 and 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 (5 and 1/3 oz) can of evaporated milk

Mix all ingredients together in order until moistened. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes. (I doubled this recipe & wound up with about 4 dozen rather large oatmeal cookies. You can always make yours smaller, but that's not how I roll. ;)

And if you bake cookies regularly and have a not so great oven, such as myself, you should know that to make the best, evenly cooked cookies, only bake one pan at a time. It's time consuming but oh-so-worth-it in the long run.


Anyone who knows me well, knows that I enjoy baking, I enjoy cooking, but things I do not enjoy include (but are certainly not limited to) spending lots of money on meals/desserts and spending tons of time in the kitchen. I prefer to spend very little money on delicious eats and prefer to spend my time with my family. So any and all recipes that I will share on my page will always be affordable and never time consuming. You can thank me later. ;)
