100% would make again

The original recipe for these delightful cookies called for raisins. Since we aren’t raisin fans, I added dried cranberries instead. The results? Incredible! –Theresa Smith of Rome, Georgia

Very good, I like to substitute dried cherries which are real good too. They give it a little different tanggy taste.

This recipe is delicious! I was out of craisins, so we used traditional raisins and the batter is very yummy! Will add more walnuts next time.
