Wonderful cookies!!! It's my boyfriend's favorite... I've used this recipe twice within the last few weeks. 48 cookies x 2 for one person... now that's a lot! Oh, since I was out of raisin, I used dried cranberry instead.

These cookies are delicious. I used butter flavored margarine. And I used only 1/2 cup of demerara brown sugar and 1/2 cup of splenda instead of sugar. They're perfect like that. I love the texture of these cookies. Thanks Lainey. Made for Gimme 5 tag game
