Love it! There's only 2 of us, so I halved the recipe, except for the vanilla and cinnamon. I also used craisins instead of raisins, because the hubby asked for them. This is going in my recipe notebook FOR SURE! :)

My son said, "Mom you've got these cookies down." I replied, "I found a great recipe!"

These are the best of all oatmeal cookies I've baked. I added 1/2 cup of chopped pecans, and they were out of this world. They didn't last too long. Try it, you'll love them.

I love these but I don't use raisins, yuck, instead I use cranberries or walnuts. Sometimes both, they are yummy and my class loves them.

Made this for years then began to use it as a basic to customize :-). Such as double the recipe, use only brown sugar or brown sugar as per list but substitute jam for granulated white sugar... orange marmalade is super. Use half butter - half canola oil. Have added coconut, substituted some of the flour for milled flax seed or whole milled wheat, used raisins first soaked in sherry or wine and use undrained. AND always us the Original Quaker Raw Oats! When I add the flax or wheat germ, call them MY HIGH Fiber Cookies. Just good clean fun!

Turned out really good in spite of the fact I accidentally used baking powder instead of soda.

When you all made these cookies did you use salted or unsalted butter?

Linda, I use unsalted for everything.

I always use unsalted butter.

I substitute dried cherries for raisins, toss in a handful of morsels like butterscotch and instead of cinnamon I use pumpkin pie spice. I thought the original vanishing cookie was good but... seriously can't keep these around. They VANISH!

The first time I made this recipe it was perfect. I made 4 dozen and gave some of them to my coworkers and they loved them. My family loved them and the recipe is simple as well. Thanks for this recipe. My family loves them.

Only recipe I ever use. Always tastes perfect just the way the recipe is written.

Friend of mine brought these on a little trip we took this weekend. Substituted cranberries for the raisins and added walnuts. Oh, my gosh! Best cookie ever!!

So that means I am the only one who made the recipe as it is?!?! I loved it! YUM

I've always made this recipe as is. You're not the only one. :)

This is my favorite recipe for years, but instead of raisins, I use chocolate chips and I sub unrefined palm sugar, using less than half the amount. SO GOOD. Slightly healthier, too!

Old favorite that I've adapted by using Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free Oats and Ahern's Gluten-Free Flour mixture (140 grams for every cup of wheat flour). Still wonderful. :-)

I have made these cookies many times for my grandchildren. They love them, one thing I dont add is the salt and it is not missed.
