Starbucks Outrageous Oatmeal Cookie

This is the recipe Starbucks passed out this year–it’s delicious at the store…I haven’t had the opportunity/motivation to try to make it yet, but hey, if I type it out here, then I don’t need to keep the index card anymore!

Ingredients:

• 1-1/2 C. old-fashioned rolled oats (not quick cooking)
• 1/2 C. all-purpose flour
• 1/4 C. dark raisins
• 1/4 C. golden raisins
• 1/4 C. dried cranberries
• 1/4 t. baking powder
• 1/4 t. baking soda
• 1/2 t. salt
• 6 T. unsalted butter, room temperature
• 1/2 C. packed dark-brown sugar
• 1/4 C. granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 t. ground cinnamon
• 1 t. pure vanilla extract
• 4 T. dark raisins (topping)
• 4 T. golden raisins (topping)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 F. Blend together oats, flour, raisins, cranberries, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside. Beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add egg, cinnamon and vanilla; beat until combined. Gradually add oat mixture; beat until combined. Combine raisins for topping in separate bowl and set aside. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart onto two baking sheets. Place one mounded teaspoon of raisins on top of dough. Bake until cookies are golden brown but still soft, 12 to 16 minutes. Cool 6 minutes on sheets; transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
