Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

 Colleen (Ohio) says:
Just wonderful. Seemed like a lot of raisins, I also added a nice handful of chocolate chips. Strong nutmeg flavor from my old powdered nutmeg, maybe a little less next time. Have never used fresh nutmeg, will have to try it someday.

Very good recipe. We don't have bleached sugar in house but honey seemed to blend well.

FINALLY! An oatmeal cookie that stays soft even after being in the fridge overnite. I got just 27 rather large cookies and were really delicious. It took 14 minutes on a non-stick cookie sheet. I left out the salt. Doesn't need it.

I added 1/2 cup of walnuts and baked for 12 minutes. Excellent!! I make larger cookies and get 27 or 28 cookies. Stays soft even after being in fridge over-night.

Me and my almost 3 year old grandson made this recipe today. Had him take cookies off the cooling rack and into bowl. Was a chore to teach him he couldn't bite each one before putting into bowl. Didn't have nutmeg and used butter instead of oil. Tastes delicious :)

I printed this recipe in 2011, best oatmeal raisin cookies ever! I just printed it again for my sister, eleven years later - still the best!

I added 1/2 a bag of Peanut Butter chips and 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, omitted the raisins. They are beautiful! We are at 3400ft elevation. Adding flour is normal for me.
