Dad's Oatmeal Pecan Raisin Cookies

Dad's Oatmeal Pecan Raisin Cookies

1 C butter
1 C brown sugar
1/2 C sugar
2 eggs
1 t vanilla
1 1/2 C flour
1 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon
3/4 t salt
3 C oats (old fashioned)
1 C raisins
1 C pecans (I like them toasted)

Beat together butter and sugars.  Add eggs and vanilla. Mix. Add in flour, soda, cinnamon and salt.  Mix.  Add in oats, nuts and raisins, mixing until just combined.  Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.

**Whenever I ask my Dad what kind of treat I can bring him, he says oatmeal raisin cookies. He doesn't like the nuts toasted, but I do. Either way, it is one of the most satisfying cookies I make. Love it!
