Add Walnuts to Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Helen McMahon, here for Expert Village. The next ingredient and this is the last one for our recipe today, is walnuts. You could also add pecans. I am going to add walnuts today and there are 2 ways you can do this. You can either buy them in halves and then you chop them yourself on a nice cutting board or actually you can buy them in a shell but that is going to take a good bit of your time to shell all the walnuts and chop them or what I prefer to do is buy them already chopped. These are California walnut pieces that are by far the easiest when doing lots of baking around the holidays or other times. You will need a cup of these. There is 1 little raisin left over and I am going to incorporate the ones that I’ve chopped just for demonstration purposes and then add to them the ones that are already cut into small pieces. When you have 1 cup of them, then add that to your batter. The batter by now is very stiff. You can see that it is pulling away from the sides of the pan which of course means that you got to stop it and scrape down again being careful at this point that you don’t have a bunch of batter flopping out of the pan and you want to make sure that the beaters are freed so that they will be able to do their job of incorporating those nuts and walnuts into this batter in a uniform way. Okay, that is going down there for its final beating. You let it beat until everything is thoroughly mixed in.
