Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Light brown sugar, packed
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup 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, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients from the medium bowl, adding a little at a time, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the raisins by hand using a spatula to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough 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 brown. The centers may look slightly underdone, but they will continue to set as they cool.
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 and enjoy your warm, spiced raisin cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite tea.
