I was looking for some fast & easy cookies to bake with the few ingredients I had on hand and these fit to a tee though I used it more as a base recipe. I used a Splenda & Brown Sugar mix and used slightly less than called for to lower the calories and make them less sweet. I didn't use any chocolate candies or chips and substituted dried cranberries for the raisins. Finally, I substituted olive oil & applesauce for the shortening and added 1 tsp of Penzey's Cake Spice.

5/5 from everyone here! I subbed margerine for shortening and did not use nuts. Because the bisquick mix tends to clump i used the mixer to blend that in as well, then added choc chips and raisins. 12 minutes in oven was perfect. Crunchy yet soft on inside. These will not last!
