Ingredients

3/4	cup	margarine	softened
3/4	cup	brown sugar, light
1/2	cup	sugar
1	large	egg
1/2	teaspoon	vanilla extract
1/4	teaspoon	salt
3/4	cup	flour, all-purpose
1 1/4	cups	oats, quick cooking
1/2	cup	nuts	chopped
1/2	cup	raisins, seedless	seedless

Directions

Cream butter and sugars until fluffy with electric mixer.

Beat in egg, vanilla and salt.

By hand, stir in flour, a 1/4 cup at a time.

Stir in oats.

Add nuts and/or raisins now (optional).

Crop by rounded teaspoons about 2 inches apart.

They will spread.

But if you want them thinner still, flatten each one with a glass bottom that's been coated in granulated sugar.

Bake at 350 degrees F.

About 12 minutes (not too dry!) but browned.

Cool on wire rack.

If raisins are dry, they will draw moisture from batter as they bake.
