Chewy Raisin Cookies image

I created this recipe on accident. I was using a recipe a friend had given me for chocolate chip cookies, but having a brother who is lactose intolerant, and having family members who have been told by doctors not to eat chocolate, I changed the recipe just enough to make it my own. It was a real crowd pleaser, too.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I'll probably try making them again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, but these cookies were surprisingly good! The raisins were plump and juicy, and they added a nice burst of flavor to the cookie. I'll definitely be making these again.
