How to Make Grannies Oatmeal Ricotta Bar Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 1 cup ricotta cheese (or plain yogurt), ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup chocolate chips (or your favorite baking chips), and ½ cup raisins.
- The batter will be thick. Press the batter evenly into the prepared pan using wet hands.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon granulated sugar over the top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into 24 bars.
