Classic Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

• 1 egg
• 1/2 c butter
• 1/2 c brown sugar
• 1/2 c white sugar
• 1/2 t vanilla extract
• 3/4 c flour
• 1/2 t baking powder
• 1/2 t baking soda
• 1/2 t salt
• 1 1/2 c rolled oats
• 1 T cinnamon
• dash of nutmeg
• 3/4 raisins

1. Combine dry ingredients in one bowl: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, oats, and spices.
2. In another bowl, beat egg. Then add butter, sugars, and vanilla, mixing until a creamy texture is achieved. Stir in the dry ingredients, and add the raisins last.
3. From a roll of Saran wrap, tear off a few sheets, roughly square. At the center of each square, place some of the dough. Wrap the plastic around the dough, and form it into a log shape, about 1.5 inches in diameter. One batch makes 3-4 such "logs." Freeze them.
4. To bake the cookies, allow dough logs to freeze at least one hour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Remove dough logs from freezer, and unwrap the plastic wrap from them. Cut the logs into discs 1/2 inch thick, and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 6-8 minutes. Best to remove from the oven while still a little soft; the cookies will continue to cook for a few minutes after removing from the oven. I like them a little soft and chewy, but bake for 7-9 minutes if you like them crunchy
