Super recipe and very adaptable- just made a batch here in Turkey with almonds which are fresh off the tree. Don't be put off by how soft the mix is - spoon it out and it will be fine. Vally

The name says it all. Very Soft! Perfect for someone having trouble with anything hard. This will be made frequently. Thnx for posting!

Great cookies! The dough was much softer than I expected. Had it not been for the recipe name, I would have been tempted to add more flour. I omitted the raisins and nuts, but threw in a bag of butterscotch chips. This is my new oatmeal scotchies recipe!

These are excellent. Love the flavour of the cinnamon and cloves through these cookies. I used all rasins and no nuts as I have a 2 year old that loves cookies. Very easy to make. Thanks.

I think I've finally found the oatmeal cookies for me! I followed the recipe exactly and was very pleased with the results. So were my husband and a bunch of people I work with. I must have over 20 oatmeal cookie recipes stored on my computer, but I think this is the one for me. Thank you very much!
