Oatmeal Cookies

I made these oatmeal cookies recently from a recipe I had saved more than 3 years ago but never tried. This will be a keeper recipe, I think the cookies are amazing. They are large and soft. You can add chocolate chips or raisins or cranberries and it is EASY.

2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened (2 sticks)
2 tsp vanilla

1 1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

3 cups oatmeal
1 cup chocolate chips or raisins or cranberries


Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Crack eggs into a medium bowl. Stir in sugar. Add softened butter and mix well. Stir in vanilla.

Add flour, baking soda and salt to the wet ingredients until just blended
Stir in chocolate chips or raisins or cranberries. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.

Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
