I have finally recovered from the Christmas cookie baking extravaganza and am ready to try some new recipes. I just happened to have all the ingredients for these in the house. I got the recipe from a new cookbook, "Joy the Baker Cookbook". Joy has her own baking blog, and now a cookbook that is full of delicious looking recipes. This is the first one I tried. It is a great all purpose cookie, great with a cup of tea or coffee, and could go great in the kids lunchboxes.
2 1/2c. old fashioned oats
1 c. all purpose flour
1 c. wheat flour
1 t. baking soda
1 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1 t. cinnamon
1 c. butter
1 c. packed brown sugar
1 c. sugar
2 large eggs
2 t. vanilla
1 c. M & M chocolate candy
1/2 c. raisins
1 c. peanuts
1 c. chocolate or peanut butter chips
Mix butter and sugars well with a mixer. Mix in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla. Turn off mixer and add flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder. salt and cinnamon. Mix just until incorporated.
Mix in the candy, peanuts, raisins and chips. Roll generous tablespoons into balls. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
