Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 cups raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the raisins using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious homemade raisin drop cookies!
