Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

2 ½ Cups Peetz S.M.A.R.T. Blend Allergen-Free All-Purpose Flour
2 tsp baking powder double-acting
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cream of tartar
½ tsp salt

Add the following to make Oatmeal Raisin

1 Cups Oats Large Flacked or quick Oats I prefer the large flaked, makes them more visulaly appealing and a bit more chewy. But quick oats do the trick and still taste great.
1 Cups Raisin I prefer sweet seedless.

Add the following to make Double Chocolate Chip

⅔ Cup Cocoa Powder There are different quality and fat levels of cocoa powder avaible use your pallet and intuition to make your choice.
1½ Cups semi-sweet chocolate chips For a guaranteed dairy-free choice, it's crucial to select chocolate that does not contain any dairy.
1 tbsp Mint extract For a yummy Christmas treat. Dark chocolate and mint go well together kinda like and after 8.
1 sprinkle Crushed Candy Cane Add some crushed candy cane to make them more festive.

Wet Ingredients

1 Cup Butter / Fat I like to use Lard or vegetable shortening with a couple of drops of butter flavour or Margarine to make it Dairy-Free
1½ Cups Old fashioned Dark Brown Sugar Packed The Brown sugar is what gives the cookies their chewyness.
½ Cups White Granulated Cane Sugar
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 Large eggs
1 Large Egg yolk Adddng an extra egg yolk helps with making the cookies more chewy

Equipment

1 Stand mixer 5 or 7 quart is ideal
1 Hand mixer with 2 large bowls
1 whisk and wooden spoon

Method

Preheat oven to 350℉ on convection or regular
Spray, grease or line two cookie sheets with parchment paper
Sifting together the dry ingredients; S.M.A.R.T. Blend, baking powder/soda, cream of tartar and salt.
Blend the dry together In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment, blend on low speed for 2 to 5 minutes while preparing the wet ingredients. This step adds lightness, by adding air to the dry ingredients.
Set aside the dry ingredients in a large bowl and prepare the wet.
Whisk together wet; fat, sugar, eggs and vanilla, in the bowl of the stand mixer, fitted with the whisk attachment for 1 min.
Once the wet is ready, switch to the paddle attachment, on low-speed slowly add the sifted, well-blended dry to the wet, and blend until lumpy batter forms.
Once the dry is well incorporated, mix on medium to high for 2 Mins
Split the batch in two, to make the two suggested flavours above or mix in the flavour you would like to freeze for next time.
You can also double up the extra ingredients and just make the whole batch your favourite flavour.
Using two tablespoons, portion out 12 or 24 balls of dough. Depending on if you decided to freeze half the batch. Press or pat them down on the prepared cookie sheets.
My daughter and I prefer different cookie textures. She prefers more soft and chewy and I prefer a crispier outside with some chewiness in the center.
Baking Instructions: 350 °F Convection: 12 to 15 Minutes Standard: 15 to 18 Minutes
Let the cookies set and cool on the cookie sheets, before transferring to a storage container.
