I time it for a little darker than golden brown on the top.
Leave these on the tray for 8 to 10 minutes after removing from the oven to let them finish cooking.

Mix the flour, baking soda salt, and cinnamon in a bowl, set aside.
Cream the butter & sugars & vanilla, then gently mix in the eggs.
Add the flour mixture, mix well, add the oatmeal and then the raisins. (For a great variation try substituting Craisins® for raisins)
Bake at 350° F for 13 to 15 minutes (depending on how crunch you like your cookies).
Leave them on the tray for a few minutes to finish cooking.

If you want the cookie to be soft on the inside, undercook them a little - they'll tend towards crunchier as they cool off.

Let them cool and roll again in the powdered sugar.
I've had people refer to these cookies as `crack` they're so addictive.
I learned to love these while working a summer/winter job with a caterer.

Stir in flour and beat until smooth.
Roll into ¾ to 1 inch (2.5cm) balls, dip into lightly beaten egg white.

With your finger or a mellon baller (not your thumb, despite the name),
make a small depression in the top of each cookie
and fill with rasberry or strawberry jam or preserve - preferably homemade.
Bake at 350° F for 15 minutes
