EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Use old-fashioned rolled oats instead of quick-cooking rolled oats.

Instead of raisins, use your favorite dried fruit. Try dried apricots, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, chopped dates or figs, or mixed fruit bits.

Oatmeal cookies freeze well. Transfer the cooled cookies to airtight containers and freeze them for up to six months. For grab-and-go desserts and snacks freeze two or three cookies each in resealable plastic freezer storage bags.

The cookies are the best but being in southwest Florida the weather makes it where you have to add more flour just 1/3 more.

These cookies are delish! Our family always loves them without nuts, but that's the only thing we change. A bit of advice for those of you having trouble with these cookies; Keep in mind that this should make 42 small cookies, so if it's taking a long time to cook it's because they might be a little too big; also, you should only have to fold in the oats, raisins and nuts so it should be fairly easy if you've mixed the other ingrnts. well.

I made this recipie for the first time. They were good, but not what I had expected. Following the time element, I had to bake an additional 20 minutes. Also, my arm wore out stirring the batter. I don't know if I'll use this same recipie again as the stirring portion wore me out.
