Oatmeal Cinnamon Chip Cookies

I made these at Christmas.  The recipe is on the back of a Hershey's Cinnamon Chip bag.  I kept the bag I used to get the recipe posted here.  The beagle has been trying to steal and eat the bag.  A word of advice...beagles are not the best sous chefs!

1 C.  butter or margarine, softened
1 C. packed brown sugar
1/3 C. granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 C. all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
2 1/2 C. quick cooking oats
1 2/3 C. cinnamon chips
3/4 C. raisins  (not everyone in my family likes raisins so at Christmas, I omitted them)


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a bowl until creamy.  Add eggs and vanilla; beat well.  Combine flour and baking soda; add to butter mixture, beating well.  Stir in oats, cinnamon chips and raisins (batter will be stiff).

Drop by heaping teaspoons onto an ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.  Cool 1 minute, remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.
