Oatmeal Cinnamon Raisin Cookies.
I don’t even like oatmeal raisin cookies and I thought these were great! They are soft, chewy with just the right amount of cinnamon. My husband and a few friends talked me into making them for an event and everyone loved them. My husband ate 5 of them that night and they are not small cookies! I’m more of a chocolate chip person, so I might try this and add chocolate chips instead of the raisins next time.
Don’t over mix the batter or you will have flat cookies and don’t over bake or you will have crispy, not chewy cookies. Other than that it’s a very simple recipe.
