Christmas is fast approaching.
It's time to learn how to decorate cookies to impress your family and friends. Check out my post on oatmeal raisin cookie recipe to see how to make oatmeal raisin cookies. Then follow the following simple steps to decorate them.
Additional Ingredients:
candy cherries
white chocolate chips
dark chocolate chips
1. After baking, remove the cookies from the oven.
2. Melt a small bowl of dark chocolate chips in the microwave. Then use a butter knife to spread the chocolate on the bottom of the cookies.
3. Put some white chocolate chips in a ziploc and put the bag in a hot bowl of water to melt them. After five minutes, remove the ziploc and squeeze the chocolate into a funnel shape and cut off the corner. Squirt the chocolate on the top of the cookies to decorate them.
4. Stick a candy cheery on top of each cookie using the melted white chocolate as glue.
Viola! You are done! Share the cookies with your friends and family! :)

Quaker Oatmeal Cookies
I have been looking around for different oatmeal raisin cookie recipes.
The first site I stumbled upon had a recipe for oatmeal cookies by ... Quaker of course. I took a look at the recipe and noticed that it uses almost the same ingredients at slightly different proportions. Here's the recipe:
1-1/4 cups (2-1/2 sticks) margarine or butter, softened
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 cups Quaker Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
You can add raisins to the recipe if you like. I would definitely do that. I love raisins so much that I even thought of adding them to my pizza... lol
The recipe uses one extra cup of oat - that should help sales :) I haven't tried it out yet. I hope the cookies won't be hard. I believe that the cookies will be softer than mine as the recipe uses more butter.
Here's a picture of the cookies.
Enjoy!
I'll be making a lot of quaker oatmeal raisin cookies when I move into my new house.
