I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and crispy. I'm going to try again soon and see if I can get them right.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

The cookies didn't spread out very much. I would chill the dough for longer next time.

The cookies were a bit dry. I would add a little more butter next time.

The cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oats. I always have oats on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.

I've tried many oatmeal cookie recipes, but this one is my favorite. The cookies are perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I also love the addition of raisins and nuts.
