Post by: abeyta87 on September 15, 2009, 06:00:12 pm: Oatmeal raisin is actually one of my top favorites. I love when they are baked from home and when you cool them just slightly where they are still warm. It is really good I actually am not a big fan of chocolate so chocolate chip is not one of my favorites like most people but you can't go wrong with oatmeal

Post by: lbeery on September 15, 2009, 07:50:06 pm: I love them but my husband hates them. I used to make them for my dad when I was a kid and won a blue ribbon for them at the CA State Fair. Make sure you use juicy (fresh) raisins. If they are too dry, soak them for about 5 min. in hot water then drain before adding them. Keeps the cookies more moist.

I sometimes use that recipe and add chocolate chips and cranberries...uumm.
