Made these cookies last year for christmas and they were a big hit. Gave them to neightbors as a gift and they commented on how delicious they were. I did use craisins instead of raisins and white

chocolate chips instead of chocolate . Getting ready to make them again .

These cookies were great, I made them without the coconut and walnuts though. Very soft and chewy!

I ran short of Oatmeal so I added a couple of packs of instant Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal to fill in. Also substituted one cup of dried Cranberries for one of the cups of Raisins. Omitted Chocolate and Coconut to save $. Wonderful cookies!

My daughter and I made these for her T-ball team snack, they virtually disappeared! I didn't add nuts or coconut, so I added a bit more oatmeal. YUM!
