Oh, these taste like my childhood! I had forgotten how good spiced cookies are; and with apples and raisins, so yum. The cloves makes my taste buds take notice. I made them as written except for the one cup of apple turned into one apple, chopped. It was a big one!<br/>Had my neighbour over for coffee this afternoon and these cookies hit the spot with her too, and now she has the recipe. Thanks Elly! <br/>BB
