White Chocolate-Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies
Use fiori di sicilia, an Italian citrus and vanilla flavoring, to give these easy drop cookies a subtle taste of orange.

I've tried a number of chocolate chip cookies over the years. This one has become my favorite by far. It's the only one I make any more -- so yummy. I do make a few changes. I hate white chocolate so use regular chocolate chips. I omit the cinnamon and combine the oats with the flour mixture since you're supposed to add them at the same time anyway. I sometimes use vanilla extract and am thinking of trying maple extract.
I know this is being posted much later in years than everyone else, but this cookie is fantastic! I read the reviews and cannot figure out where some of the comments are coming from. The cookies do not have white chocolate drizzled on them. The white chocolate is in the cookies. As for flatness, I question whether the baker took the time to refrigerate the dough before making the cookies, as recommended. On the KAF website, they recommend doing this with all cookie dough (for at least 30 minutes I believe) to firm up the butter again to avoid having the cookie spread too much. I followed the recipe, including the Fiori Di Sicilia - a flavor that does NOT compare to anything else, and they came out perfect. My husband asked me why it took 35 years for me to make these!!!!!
Made them twice and came out great both times.
Sorry, I did not make these, but was going to until I saw the 1cup of flour????? Maybe that's why everyone complains of flat cookies????? Actually, the cookies pictured look pretty flat to me as well......what gives My Recipes......a goof perhaps????? I will not make these.
Cookies were very tasty, however, tended to brown way to fast at the suggested oven temperature.
These cookies are yummy! I used gluten free flour and replaced the raisins with dried cherrys. I used dark chocolate chunks too. A really good cookie! Allow a lot of room as the cookies really spread
I am not a big fan of white chocolate so instead of that and the raisins, I use lots of orange infused dried cranberries (Trader Joes) and sometimes use regular semi sweet chocolate chips. When I bake cookies I always check to be sure the baking soda and baking powder are fresh and then always get nice puffed cookies - if they are supposed to be that way! An outstanding recipe - always in the Christmas gift boxes.
These are the best cookies i have ever made. Totally addictive and delicius.!
These are my family's new favorite cookies! I made some changes….used a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and a combination of golden raisins, regular raisins and dried cranberries (totaling 1/2 c.). I also made them smaller…made them a heaping teaspoon instead of tablespoon and adjusted the baking time accordingly. I also used half white flour and half whole wheat flower.
Very good cookies! I didn't have orange extract so I used 2 tsp of orange zest instead (and they were not too "orange-y"). The only thing I would change is to use 1-2 ounces less white chocolate. Side note: Like another commenter said, my cookies also came out more flat than in the picture.
One of the best cookies I have ever made. These will be added to my Holiday gift giving list. Try them and you will see what I mean.
Awesome cookie!!
Delicious blend of sweet with the tartness of cranberries.
My cookies also did not look like the picture. Very flat, was not too happy about that. I wish I knew what went wrong. They were tasty.
These were good cookies. I did not stray from the recipe. I put in 2 cups of white chocolate chips and it was really almost too many. All in all a good cookie.
The cookies smelled and tasted great....but my cookies didn't look like the nice mounds in the picture. They came out flat. I drizzled the white chocolate over the cookies instead of dipping them.
These are delicious. I didn't dip them in white chocolate. I just used white chocolate chips in the dough. They white chocolate and cinnamon and orange are lovely together!
I haven't made them yet, but in the picture they seem to have been dipped in white chocolate rather than having the chocolate mixed into the dough. Otherwise, you could just use white chocolate chips. They do sound yummy, and I'm going to experiment with melting the white chocolate & dipping the baked cookies into it.
