Whole Wheat Oatmeal Cookies

This was Will's first time truly helping me cook/bake.
He must have been observing Westley all this time because he knew just what to do. He dumped in the ingredients and stirred, and even wanted to help spoon out the dough onto the cookie sheets.
He was so excited to help!

Here's the recipe

Whole Wheat Oatmeal Cookies

6 tbsp butter

2/3 cup brown sugar

1 egg

1 tbsp water

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup whole wheat flour

½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

1 ½ cups rolled oats

½ cup raisins

½ cup nuts (optional)

Cream butter and sugar. Beat in egg, water, and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients. Add raisins and nuts. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto lightly greased baking sheet. Back at 375 degrees for 10 minutes.

Makes about 2 dozen.

Best if eaten the day they were made.
