Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
makes about 4 dozen 3-inch cookies
Savor the flavors of this favorite comfort cookie made with old-fashioned oatmeal, brown sugar, molasses, cinnamon, raisins, and lots of toasted pecans. The orange zest really complements these ingredients.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned in and leveled
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, slightly firm
1 teaspoon grated Navel orange zest
2/3 cup lightly packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup dark unsulfured molasses
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups old-fashioned oatmeal
1 cup broken, toasted pecans or walnuts
1 cup dark raisins, plumped, drained, and patted dry on paper towels
Directions
Position the shelves in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Heat the oven to 350°. Moderately butter the cookie sheets.
Strain together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In the large bowl of an electric mixer, using the paddle attachment, soften the butter with the orange zest on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute; add the brown sugar, then the granulated sugar and mix until light in color, 2 to 3 minutes. Blend in the molasses and mix to combine. Add the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla and mix for 1 minute longer.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and pour in the dry ingredients, half at a time, mixing only to incorporate the flour, then blend in the oatmeal. Using a large rubber spatula, fold in the pecans and raisins.
Drop by rounded tablespoons 3 inches apart onto the cookie sheets. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown, rotating the pans top to bottom and front to back toward the end of baking time. Do not overbake or the cookies will be too crisp and difficult to remove from the pan. Let cookies stand for 2 minutes, then loosen with a thin metal spatula. Cool on wire racks.
Note: Storage: Store in an airtight container, layered between strips of wax paper, for up to 1 week. These cookies may be frozen.

С час назад завтракаем с поварихой. Я: "Что свое печенье не ешь? Ешь". Она: "В них масло"... :)))
А вы знаете что у вас в Торонто снимают мой любимый новый фантастический телесериал "12 обезьян"? Вот вы там ходите по улицам и не знаете небось.:)
А в Торонто чего только не снимают! Считай, половина голливудского добра снята у нас. Сыновья хорошо опознают места, где был снят фильм: "Смотри, это там-то. А это там-то". :)))
Не так давно прочитал, что "Кил Бил" почти весь был снят в Торонто. :)))
