Ooey-Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp nutmeg and cinnamon
Dash of cloves and allspice
1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 2/3 cup turbinado sugar
2 Tbs molasses
2 eggs
3 cups thick cut (not instant) oats
1 1/2 cups raisins

Pre-heat oven to 350F. Sift flour, baking powder, and spices into small bowl. In large bowl, with electric mixer, beat butter until smooth. Add sugar and molasses and beat until fluffy (3-5 minutes). Add eggs, continuing to beat for another minute. Add flour, little at a time, until all is incorporated. Using wooden spoon or spatula, fold in oats and raisins.

Let dough sit in refrigerator for 15-45 minutes.

Using a two tablespoon amount of dough, roll into ball in your hand. Place on greased cookie sheet. Let cook on center rack for 22-25 minutes. Let cool on cookie sheet for a few moments, then transfer to finish cooling (if you try to remove the cookies from the sheet too quickly, they will crumble.)
