    The best oatmeal raisin cookie! I added a little more spice, 1/4 tsp nutmeg and 1/8 tsp allspice. I love the raisins in this and would like to add a little more next time, maybe a 1/2 cup extra....just cus' Lol...;)
    I can't wait to make another batch!

    Hi Val,
    Love your Recipe. Yummy:)
    I'm going to share a secret.
    Crack the Egg (I use 2) into a bowl & beat. Put the 1 Cup of Sun Maid Raisins into the beaten Egg(s) & put in the refrigerator overnight, covered with plastic wrap.
    The Raisins soak up the Egg(s) & plump perfectly. Then make your cookies as directed. The flavor of the Raisins in the Oatmeal Cookies is amazing.
    Let me know what you think if you try it.
    I've Bookmarked this & 5 Cookied it.
    Now, all I want is a couple Sun Maid Raisin & Oatmeal Cookies.
    Thank you for the share & don't tell anyone the secret;-)
