Mummy Oatmeal Cookies

This Halloween dessert uses my favorite oatmeal cookie recipe, and is super easy to decorate.
Warning: it’s impossible to eat just one!

INGREDIENTS
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 sticks butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups quick-cook oats
3-4 tubes of white decorating icing
1 box of raisins


RECIPE
1  Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2  Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. 

3  Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.

4  Gradually beat in flour mixture. Then stir in oats.

5  Drop a rounded teaspoon onto parchment paper on a baking sheet.

6  Bake 12 minutes for chewy cookies, a couple minutes longer for crispy cookies. 
    Cool on baking sheet for two minutes before placing on a wire rack to cool completely.

7  After the cookies have completely cooled, “wrap” the cookies with icing, and add two raisins for eyes.
