Big Blast Oatmeal Cookies Recipes

OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat butter in the bowl of a stand mixer (or using an electric beater) for about 30 seconds. Add sugars and beat until light and fluffy (pause to scrape down sides and bottom of bowl, if needed).
• Add eggs, one at a time, beating until combined.
• Stir in vanilla extract.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
• Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture until completely combined. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl so ingredients are well-mixed.
• Gradually stir in oats until completely combined. If using raisins or chocolate chips, stir them in at this point.
• Chill dough in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375F (190C) and prepare cookie sheets by lining with parchment paper.
• Drop cookie by rounded 2-3 Tablespoon-sized ball onto parchment paper, spacing at least 2" apart.
• Bake on 375F (190C) for 10-12 (edges should be slightly browned, centers may still be slightly underbaked but shouldn't be raw, they'll bake completely as they cool).
• Allow cookies to cool completely on cookie sheet before serving and enjoying.

BIG BATCH OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 350.
• Beat butter, sugars, vanill and eggs until they are very, creamy and fluffy.
• Add remaining ingredients slowly, mixing well after each addition.
• Bake on ungreased cooky sheets for 8-10 minutes. Depending on how you like them, I take them out before they look done, they will puff in the oven but as they cool they flatten and will be more done. Cool slightly on the pan before moving to a wire rack. (2-3 minutes usually does it, too soon and they fall apart too long they cet stuck to the pan).
• Don't put them too close together, as thick as the batter is, they still spread out alot.

GREAT BIG OATMEAL COOKIES ( THAT ARE BOTH GREAT AND BIG )

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spread the coconut and oats out on a large baking sheet - two sheets work better.
• Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly browned and toasted, stirring often.
• While the coconut and oats cool, mix the flour, baking soda and salt.
• Cream the butter and sugar together in a separate, large, bowl at medium speed for one minute.
• Add the eggs and vanilla to the butter mixture and beat until mixed; beat in the milk.
• Stir in the flour, then stir in the coconut and oats.
• I thought the dough looked pretty sticky, so at this point I put it in the refrigerator for an hour. It's not something that's called for in the original recipe, but I recommend it since it worked very well for me.
• Drop dough in 1/4 cup amounts, 3 inches apart, onto greased baking sheets. I used an ice cream scoop for this (filled so the scoop was rounded, but not heaping), and it worked perfectly.
• Bake for 12 minutes, or until they are set and lightly browned.
• Let the cookies cool on the cookie sheets for one minute before transfering to a rack to finish cooling.

BIG CHEWY OATMEAL-RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Adjust oven racks to low and middle positions.
• Heat oven to 350°F (175 C).
• Beat butter until creamy.
• Add sugars and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Beat in eggs one at a time.
• Mix flour, salt, baking powder, and nutmeg together.
• Stir flour mixture into butter-sugar mixture.
• Stir in oats and optional raisins.
• Form dough into 16 2-inch balls, placing each onto one of two parchment paper-covered, large cookie sheets.
• Bake until cookie edges turn golden brown, 22 to 25 minutes.
• Slide cookies on parchment onto cooling rack.
• Let cool at least 30 minutes before serving.
• Comments: Do not over bake.
• The edges should be brown but the rest of the cookie should still be very light in color.
• Parchment makes for easy cookie removal and cleanup, but it's not a necessity.
• If you don't use parchment, let the cookies cool directly on the baking sheet for two minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

BIG OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat butter and brown sugar in large bowl of an electric mixer, until creamy; beat in eggs and vanilla.
• In separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, blending thoroughly.
• Add oats, chocolate chips, and nuts; mix well.
• Shape each cookie by spooning dough into a 1/2-cup measure, level off, and turn out onto a greased baking sheet. Space cookies a minimum of 6 inches apart and 2 1/2 from edge of baking sheet.
• Lightly grease the bottom of a pie pan, dip in granulated sugar, and use to flatten each cookie into a 5 1/2-inch circle. To even each cookie's thickness, press it lightly with your finger, if necessary.
• Bake in a 350 degree farenheit oven for about 15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Place on baking sheets and allow to cool for 5 minutes; transfer to racks to cool completely.
• Store in airtight container.
