Twisted Oatmeal Raisin MckCookies

Got this recipe from MyCharmingKids.net . I made them the other day and they were YUMMY!!! As well, nutritious for your little ones and you of course. When I made them, I didn't have any raisins so I used dried cranberries and substituted whole wheat flour for the regular flour. Wouldn't even know there is whole wheat flour in them at all.

I am going to start posting more “Kid Friendly Recipes” as well as just healthy recipes that our family enjoys. I am all about sneaking in veggies and healthy nutrients into foods for my little girl. She doesn't eat any veggies that is visible. Oh well, there is more to stress about in life. :)

Enjoy!

Twisted Oatmeal Raisin MckCookies
3/4 c butter
1 c packed brown sugar
1/2 c raw sugar

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 T molasses
1/2 c raisins

In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with a mixer for 30 seconds. Add brown sugar, raw sugar, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Beat until combined. Beat in the eggs, vanilla and molasses. Beat in the flour. Stir in the oats, flaxseed meal and raisins.
Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle raw sugar on top. Press down gently with the tines of a fork. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges are golden. Cool on a wire rack.
