Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, Chinese 5 spice powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated.
Step 6
Fold in the rolled oats, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using). Ensure everything is evenly mixed.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve the cookies once cooled, and store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
