Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
"I was told many years ago that this is a Mrs. Fields recipe.
What I do know is that these cookies will be one of your favourites for your family. I would make these cookies for my family and they would be gone in a day or so with the help of some of my son's basketball team!"

Very good cookies. I had to reduce the heat to 375 and increase the bake time to 10 minutes, but it could be my oven. I tried the size of the golf ball, but the dough was too sticky to continue with that method so I just did the drop cookie method instead. This recipe sure does make a ton of cookies! Thanks for posting! Made for New Kids on the Block tag game.

I was so touched by the responses to my inquiries on Recipezaar. If it wasn't for the fact I lost my favourite cheesecake recipe and was determined to find one similar or the same I would not have found Reipezaar so I just have to tell my story. I had lost this recipe in moving and I bought several baking books and searched the web for months in my desperate search. Extremely late one night I found Recipezaar and posted my lost recipe as best as I could remember. The next day in the forum there it was posted the one and only lost cheesecake recipe. I knew it was the one from some of the ingredients. Several chefs gave me other recipes including New York Cheesecake by Tyler Florence which is wonderful as well which includes the Cherry Confit topping in the recipe which we adore. On September 19, 2006 this story had a happy ending with me finding my old cheesecake recipe. I thought I will never lose it again by posting it on Recipezaar.recipe #186938.That is why I'm hooked on this wonderful web site called Food! </p>
