We did not care for the taste of the cookie.

I loved this recipe, I made it for a cookie exchange and everyone loved it as well. The raisins are so soft and moist I think that makes all the difference. I did add vanilla because I add that too all my cookies, perhaps that made the difference.

This cookie recipe is similar to a recipe, without nuts, I made with my aunt when I was a little girl, but we soaked the raisins first, drained them and then ground them in a grinder. She didn't have a blender or processor! Unfortunately, I lost the recipe and have been trying to duplicate it, but those cookies spread out on their own and were chewy AND crisp around the edges.

I was pleasantly surprised by these cookies. I was suspicious of using only white sugar, but they were chewy, flavorful, and delicious! I didn't chop the raisins, and I left out the nuts because my husband doesn't like nuts in his oatmeal-raisin cookies. My cookies were not as brown as those in the photo.

Wonderful! I didn't want to try them when my daughter made them because I hate raisins. I loved these! I had to come on here to get the recipe for myself.

I agree with the last review - very disappointing! I went onlline to check the recipe again thinking there was something left out when printed in the magazine-but no it's the same. I wasted a lot of ingredients and more importantly a lot of time on this recipe!

This is the 1st recipe that I made out of TOH that was not good. It might have been the butter shortening but I threw the batch out. I've baked cooies for 40 years and these were not very good. They baked well and looked ok but they tasted "BLAH". I'll go back to my standby recipe for oatmeal cookies. Thanks for submitting them but I won't make them again.
