I make these cookies quite often because they are so easy. I also like to make a double or triple batch and put some in the freezer so I always have some on hand!

I agree that the raisins don't fit so I added chopped pecans instead. My family and I love these cookies and believe me I live with cookie monsters. Very easy to make.

To me, the raisins just don't really fit with the rest of the cookies. If you leave out the raisins though, you have a nice moist chocolatey cookie that I would give 4 stars too.
