      Delicious cookies! My daughter and I made these together this afternoon. I found the directions to be very accurate - even down to the number of cookies. I used a small meatball scooper to measure and came up with exactly 72 cookies. They hold their shape well while baking - not much spreading at all. The raisins stayed moist and plump - I liked the unique method of pre-soaking them. On a personal note, I am so happy that Merrie shared this recipe online- I am part of the family mentioned in the description, but since I live very far away, I don't often get a chance to taste her yummy dishes. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

      The cookies are wonderful...I agree, the secret is in the 'egg-raisin-soak process'. I have discarded my favorite oatmeal cookie recipe and added this one to my file! Thanks for sharing!!!!!

      This is a great recipe. The cookies came out just crisp enough to be really delicious. Not too soft, not too crisp. My wife considers herself to be an Oatmeal Cookie connoisseur and she raved about the cookies. She even took some to her work place and everyone there enjoyed the cookies. Thanks for posting this recipe.

      I don't usually like cookies, I'm more interested in the dough...but these are more than great, they are awesome!!! I have had to make these 4 times since I got the recipe a week ago, and 3 of the 4 times I had to double the batch. I did add some nutmeg (1 tsp.) to the spices and a little less than 1/4 cup milk to the egg mix. Now I have neighborhood kids coming over just to see if I have baked any more of these wonderful little things. What an awesome recipe!!!

      YUM! My fiance is very particular about oatmeal raisin cookies and he loved them! They have such a good flavor. I think I may add a few more raisins next time. Thanks for the great recipe!

      Awesome. A nice mix of oatmeal and cookie dough texture! A good amount of raisins too. They stay chewy, which is the most important part of all! Thanks

      These were good cookies. I forgot to add the nuts. I didn't have any raisins on hand so I added Craisins instead...still yummy!

      Made these and they are wonderful. Fat content, cholesterol & sodium content is just what the doctor ordered. Found the batter a little hard to work with after dry ingredients added so used my fingers and it worked out fine. Thanks again

      These cookies were perfect in every way except for being just a tad salty. Next time I will reduce the salt by one-half.

      These cookies are incredibly good. I thought at least with the oatmeal and raisins they'd have something healthy in there, but I'm just afraid they're better than that. Like Goldilocks, these turned out "just right"; not too soft, not too crisp, perfect, petite, and YES! even dainty. (If you can imagine a dainty oatmeal cookie, this would be the one.) From now on, this will be my oatmeal cookie of choice!

      These cookies turned out great! Wow, soaking the raisins makes all the difference. Two of my kids (raisin haters) cringed when they saw the cookies and I pleaded with them to give them a try. They were absolutley amazed. They gobbled them up. The directions were perfect and easy to follow. Thank you, Thank you! I too will throw way my other oatmeal cookie recipes. This is the one!

      I registered, just so I could come here to say that this cookie recipe is amazing. I skipped the nuts, added another 1/2 c of raisins, a tsp of nutmeg, a half tsp of cloves, and a half tsp of allspice. AMAZING. Thank you for the recipe!

      Like this recipe because it has a little less fat/margarine/butter. Someone commented these are 'cakey' and not chewy bendable OC you may be used to.True. My experience is to cut back on the flour amount. Maybe b 1/3 C? I used 1 tsp BPowder and 1 tsp Baking Soda,. I also added a little Maple Syrup and Allspice.

      Great recipe! I used half whole wheat and subbed 1/4 cup of wheat germ for part of the oatmeal. A sweet cookie, not as healthy-tasting, but that is ok with me haha! I love the soaking raisin tip. I did have trouble getting them to be perfectly cooked, but my oven has been on the fritz. Thanks for the keeper!
