"These cookies are by far the bast oatmeal raisin cookies I have ever tried. The Shredded Wheat gives it an extra chewiness that I always try to find in this type of cookie. I came up with this idea on accident. I was making oatmeal raisin cookies and I didn't have enough oats. So rather than run to the store, I decided to improvise. Best moment of laziness I'll ever have."

1 cup butter (two sticks softened)
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup rolled oats (Not Instant)
3 cups of honey shredded wheat (Coarsely Ground)
1 ¹⁄₂ cups raisins

directions

Step One: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a mixer blend together butter, eggs, and vanilla.
Step Two: In a separate bowl mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Add to butter and egg mixture in the mixer and mix well.
Step Three: Measure out about three cups of Honey Shredded Wheat and put it in a plastic bag. With a rolling pin crush the cereal until the biggest pieces are about the size of a rolled oat.
Step Three: Add the crushed Honey Shredded Wheat and the rolled oats into the mixer with the rest of the ingredients. Mix Well.
Step Four: Mix in raisins.
Step Five: Scoop out two tablespoons of dough at a time for each cookie. Form into a ball shape with your hands. Set only nine balls of dough to each tray.
Step Six: Put them in the oven on the middle rack and bake for about 12 minutes. Let them cool on a tray for a few minutes before you take them off. Make sure to lay the cookies flat once you scoop them off the tray until they have completely cooled off.
Enjoy!
