Cookie Chef

I have a new life goal. I want to be a Cookie Chef when I grow up!!! I am now famous for my cookies. They aren't anything special- usually just a plain chocolate chip cookie recipe- but I bake cookies almost every Sunday and give them to people. As soon as I figured out that I was famous for them, I decided to start experimenting and branching out to other types of cookies. Today I tried Oatmeal Raisin with a twist and they are amazing, if I do say so myself. They actually don't even have raisins- they have apples. Just in case they didn't turn out, I did half with raisins and half with apples.




Here is the recipe, if you want to try them-


1 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 cups quick oats
1 cup apple pie filling


Beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla, beat. In another bowl, combine remaining dry ingredients (cinnamon, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and oats). Add to wet mixture 1 cup at a time. Then, add apple pie filling one spoonful at a time. I used homemade pie filling, and the apple slices were pretty big, so I cut them up into smaller pieces, but I don't know what you will have to do with storebought. Drop by spoonful onto greased cookie sheets- bake at 350 for 12-14 minutes.
