Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. In large mixing bowl beat butter and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add eggs, molasses and vanilla and combine well.
  4. In another bowl combine oats, flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cinnamon, stirring to mix together.
  5. Add dry ingredients slowly to the butter mixture, mixing until all dry ingredients are incorporated.
  6. I do this using a wooden spoon because the dough becomes too thick for an electric mixer.
  7. Add pecans, both kinds of baking chips and dried cranberries last.
  8. Continue mixing by hand until all ingredients form a stiff dough.
  9. Measuring about a tablespoon of dough for each cookie, place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
  10. This cookie dough will not spread while baking so you might want to flatten each mound of dough just slightly with fingers or back of spoon.
  11. Bake at 375 for 8 to 10 minutes or until cookie begins to brown.
  12. Carefully Remove baked cookies from baking sheet as soon as they come out of the oven.
