Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

What is the big deal about an oatmeal raisin cookie recipe?

Normally I would say nothing.

But, it is my nature to cook up to five different versions of one type of recipe.

Having said that, this is the recipe I like best for oatmeal raisin cookies.

It stayed moist and tasty and it was just the right amount of spice and sugar to be considered a really good cookie recipe.
