Oatmeal Cookies

This is a recipe from my sister in law. It actually calls for raisins or craisins but I'm not a big fan of either. But I love chocolate so I used chocolate chips in mine.

Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
3 cups quick oats
1 cup raisins or craisins
1/2 cups chopped nuts (optional)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Beat together butter and sugar until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat well. Combine flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. Then add to creamy mixture. Stir in oats and raisins. Mix well. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly brown. Cool on baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to wire racks.
