Ok, I know your cookie recipes... I'm bookmarking this!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is almost *exactly* the recipe I made earlier this week! I soak my raisins in hot water before adding them...and I substitute coconut sugar instead of the white/brown sugar and coconut oil instead of the butter! I can testify to their goodness ... they're nearly gone! :)
ReplyDeleteI was going to make cookies this afternoon, and now I'm going to make these! They sound yummy! Thanks for the recipe! :0)
ReplyDeleteYummm. Dolly and I will be right over. We'll bring the milk!
ReplyDeleteI just made your cookie recipe. I omitted the the raisins and split the batch in half and added chocolate chips to one half and the other butterscotch chip. Both turned out fantastic! My husband who hates oatmeal cookies said he would make an exception and eat the butterscotch ones. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is YUMMY! 😋. Thanks for such a delicious recipe!
