Ingredients
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Gradually stir in the flour mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts (if using).
