This recipe was from the urban legend in the 1990s about how a woman went to the Neiman Marcus cafe. She loved the cookies served and asked for the recipe. She received a bill for some outrageous amount, like $500, for the recipe. She vowed to share this recipe with everyone. Utter nonsense but a good cookie recipe.
1 c butter, softened
1 1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
1 t vanilla
2 c flour
1 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
2 c oats
1 c raisins
1 c cranberries, coarsely chopped
1 T orange peel, grated
12 oz white chocolate chips
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time; beating after each addition. Add vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to sugar/butter mixture. Gently stir in, oats, raisins, cranberries, orange peel, and white chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoon onto greased baking sheet 2" apart. Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes.
At work we had a cookie exchange and I made these cookies. It makes a lot. We had to bring in 3 dozen and I easily sent the Sous Chef to work with probably another 3 dozen.
