  1. These cookies are perfect! I had been searching for a homemade version of the oatmeal raisin cookies at subway...finally found it! I increased the amount of butter to 3/4 cup and soft cooked @325 for 13 minutes...yum!!!

  2. Oh, dear, addictive does not nearly describe these! LOL I used beet molasses because that's what we usually have here, and used gluten free all purpose flour and half raisins and half craisins. SO good! Thanks for sharing :)<br/>Made for Make My Recipe Reunion Game / AUS / NZ Forum
     
  3. I omitted the nuts because of the allergies at the school of my son. And I used only 1/2 cup of raisins. They are so yummy. I baked them 15 minutes and then let them rest on the baking sheet a few minutes before removing them to the cooling rack. Thanks Nancy :) made for Holiday tag game
     
  4. Due to a cinnamon allergy and accidentally running out of molasses, I had to sub as follows: ginger for cinnamon, honey for molasses, golden raisins for raisins. The results were outstanding! Each cookie was topped with a walnut.**The cookies do spread and must be cooled on the sheet for two minutes before removing.**Thank you for posting. Made for Spring 2010 PAC.
     
  5. Spectacular! These were the perfect reward for me today! Easy to make and absolutely delicious. These cookies will be made again and again. Thanks for sharing!

  1. To make them moister I added an additional 1/2 stick of butter for a total of 3/4 cup of butter
     
  2. These are SO SO SO good! We're eating them right now. So chewy and tasty! We added chocolate chunks instead of raisins. He says they are the best cookies he's ever had (oatmeal cookies are his favorite). I say they are the best oatmeal cookies I've ever had! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
     
  3. Has anyone tried this with only 3/4c sugar? Cup and a quarter seems like a lot.
     
  4. Adding cardamom, some applesauce, letting them cool on the pan.
     
  5. Increased the butter to 3/4 cup
