Help: Cookie Hints and Tips

TheBakingPan Recommends: The BEST instant read thermometer I’ve used for cooking and baking; the ThermoWorks Splash-Proof Super-Fast Thermapen Thermometer is incredibly fast, ThermoWorks Splash-Proof Super-Fast Thermapenaccurate, and well worth the investment. I use my Thermapen Thermometer for checking room temperature ingredients, tempering chocolate, baking bread, making pastry creams, sugar syrup, caramel, and candy, cooking meats and fish, and deep frying. Thermapen Thermometer available here.
Ingredients
Dough:
  • 1½ cups raisins
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1¼ cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon light or dark corn syrup
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 cups old-fashioned oats
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare 2 large baking sheets; lightly grease with shortening, or line with parchment paper, or line with a non-stick baking mat.
Dough:
  1. In a vegetable steamer over hot water, place raisins; cover and steam for about 10 minutes. Uncover and set aside to cool.
  2. In a large bowl of an electric mixer, combine butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and corn syrup; cream together until mixture appears light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula so the mixture blends evenly. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until thoroughly mixed. Add baking soda and cinnamon; stir well. Add oats and cooled raisins; stir until mixed.
  3. Bake: Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto baking sheets. Bake 15 minutes or until edges are very lightly browned. Cookies should still be soft in the middle. Do not overbake; the cookies will firm up as they cool, and they are best if they are soft. Tip: An ice cream scoop is ideal for making uniform-sized cookies.
  4. Remove from oven and let cookies cool on baking sheet one minute. Remove cookies from baking sheets with a metal spatula and place on a wire cooling rack to cool.

Easter Coconut Cake

April 16, 2019 By Carol Arroyo

Yum Save Print Easter Coconut Cake A coconut custard cake all dressed for Easter. I purchased the cute Easter sprinkles at a local cake decorating shop. I made one mistake on this cake; when making the white chocolate drip I was rushed for time and simply melted the candy melts instead of making a ganache. […]

Lemony Carrot Cake

Yum Save Print Lemony Carrot Cake A simple carrot cake flavored with a touch of cinnamon and crushed pineapple, and wowed with a lemony cream cheese filling. I used American Buttercream for the frosting, but Swiss Meringue Buttercream or Flour Buttercream would also be delicious. Recipe type: Dessert | Oil Cake | Layer Cake Prep time:  […]
