Hint of Gingerbread variation for 1/3 of the batter: 1/2 cup raisins sprinkled with flour with pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon) mixed in (vary to taste - 1/2 teaspoon worked for me in 2 tablespoons flour) 2 tablespoons molasses (add with other liquid ingredients) My husband liked them best when they weren't flattened with the glass dipped in sugar, but they'd be fine that way too. Couldn't decide where to start baking cookies, and this recipe got me past my 'bakers block'!
