Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cups Unsalted butter, softened
- 1.5 cups Packed light brown sugar
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer with the paddle attachment to cream the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the raisins using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded dough portions onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still look slightly underbaked, which is ideal for soft cookies.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies warm or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
