These are very easy to make. I loved the cayenne brown sugar kick!! I could not use the raisins this time, as my son ate all of them. I used 1/2 of the butter the recipe called for. I'll be making this again with the raisins. But it is nice to know it is a winner even without them. Made for *Zaar Cookbooks Tag 2009* game
