How to Make Frost Bite Cookies

  1. Combine 1/2 cup orange juice and 1 cup Sun-Maid raisins in a small bowl. Let stand overnight.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 tablespoon orange zest.
  4. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in the soaked raisins (including any soaking liquid) and 1 cup rolled oats.
  7. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto greased baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly.
  8. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
  10. Microwave 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a small, microwave-safe bowl for 3-4 minutes on low power, stirring once halfway through.
  11. Let stand for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
  12. Dip one-third of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate and place on waxed paper.
  13. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm.
  14. **Strip Version:** Divide dough into 4 equal portions.
  15. Place 2 portions, at least 6 inches apart, on a baking sheet.
  16. Using well-floured hands, pat each portion into a 12-inch-long log, about 1 1/2 inches wide.
  17. Bake until golden brown, 12-14 minutes.
  18. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes.
  19. Cut logs diagonally into 1-inch-wide strips.
  20. Dip strips in melted chocolate as directed above.
