In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, melt 0.5 cup of unsalted butter.
Add 0.5 cup of brown sugar, 0.25 cup of granulated sugar, and 0.25 cup of milk to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 1 minute, while stirring occasionally.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 0.5 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt until well combined.
Add 2 cups of rolled oats and 0.5 cup of raisins to the saucepan. Mix thoroughly until the oats and raisins are fully coated in the mixture.
Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon if desired.
Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are firm and set.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
