- In a stand mixer, cream butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add in your egg, vanilla, molasses, and mix until fully combined.
- Turn the mixer speed to low and slowly add the flour mixture. Once combined, add in rolled oats, raisins, and walnuts (if using) and mix to combine.
- Using a 2 tablespoons cookie scoop, measure out the cooking dough and place it onto the prepared cookie sheet 2 1/2 inches apart.

- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Notes
How to Freeze: Measure out all the cooking dough and place it onto a baking sheet, and flash freeze. Once the cookies are frozen place them into a freezer bag. Freeze for 2-3 months.
How to Cook From Frozen: Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit and place frozen cookies 2 1/2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake cookies until they look set around the outside edge but slightly underbaked in the middle, about 12-15 minutes. Let them cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before placing cookies on a cooling rack to completely cool.
