Leftover Oatmeal Cookies

I am making these for tomorrow's snack with leftovers from today's breakfast.

Leftover Oatmeal Cookies

4 c. sifted flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. cinnamon
3/4 tsp. nutmeg
2 c. sugar (more if you didn't season the leftover oatmeal already)
1 1/3 c. butter
4 eggs
3 c. cooked oatmeal
2 c raisins (optional)

Sift dry ingredients together. Add butter and eggs and beat until creamy (about 2 minutes). Stir in oatmeal. Drop from teaspoon onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Yield: 8 dozen small cookies, fewer large ones.

These came out like breakfast cookies, not dessert cookies. The Lambies liked them.
