This recipe makes A LOT of cookies!I actually baked them in two shifts(I put the batter in the fridge overnight) They are delicious and sweet, but the texture keeps them from being too overpoweringly sweet given all the different sugar sources. I substituted dried unsweetened cranberries for the raisins and used WHITE chocolate chips. I actually took them into the costume shop I run for my student workers and they devoured them.They have already requested them for our next big show! Thanks for a great recipe.

Love to eat and cook! A bit too much a dare say. I always had a knack for cooking, then a very good friend of mine, who is a reknown chef, took me under her wing and opened my mind! Or should I say, my mouth! Most of ther recipes that I post are some she taught me.
