Yield::24 cookies
Ingredients
2 cups white sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup butter
½ cup water
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups rolled oats
1 ½ cups raisins
6 cups toasted oat cereal rings (such as Cheerios)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix sugar, peanut butter, butter, water, vanilla, and eggs together in a very large bowl until smooth. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into cookie batter. Mix in oats and raisins, then carefully stir in cereal. Drop 1/2 cupfuls of dough onto ungreased cookie sheets, spacing cookies about 4 inches apart. Flatten cookies to 1 inch thick.
Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are lightly browned at the edges, about 10 to 12 minutes. Let stand on the cookie sheets for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Store at room temperature.
Cook’s Note
Feel free to substitute chocolate chips or dried cranberries for the raisins or any combination of the three for a little different twist. I like to put each cookie into a sandwich bag which makes them easy to grab on the way out the door.
