Oatmeal Yogurt Raisin Cookies
At the beginning of April, I wanted to make oatmeal raisin cookies. Instead, I got nervous and had to add some walnuts to make my walnut oatmeal raisin cookies.
This time, I wanted to try to make them again. Just plain oatmeal raisin cookies. And still, I had to make it weird by putting yogurt covered raisins in the place of raisins.
It seems like I am incapable of making Plain Jane oatmeal raisin cookies.
But the reason I made these Oatmeal Yogurt Raisin Cookies as opposed to regular raisin cookies is because I buy SO many bags of yogurt covered raisins. They are my not-so-secret addiction.
And since swimsuit season is rapidly approaching, I probably didn't want bags of these things lying around within my reach.
Sharing them in cookie form is always the solution.
I'm always happy when I get to add another cookie recipe to my repertoire. I mean, who doesn't like cookies! I'm sure I could bribe my entire class to do their homework if I promised a couple of Oreos upon completion.
Hmm.. That might be a good idea...
What you need to make these Oatmeal Yogurt Raisin Cookies
Basically pantry essentials. All you need is:
- oats
- flour
- baking powder
- cinnamon
- salt
- butter
- brown & white sugar
- vanilla
- eggs
- yogurt covered raisins
But these cookies! They may even make raisin haters forget they hate raisins! I mean, if the raisins are hidden in yogurt which are then hidden in cookies?
These cookies, as most cookies in my house, were gone within a couple of days. Now as I'm writing this, I want to make more.
Well, I have to use my many bags of yogurt covered raisins somehow!
