The kids loved them and I think this is the best raisin cookie I've found. Thanks for sharing this fabulous recipe! I found this recipe to be a bit unflavorful. I came upon it while looking for a recipe my grandmother gave me years ago lost it and thought this would be close.. The raisin filled are my husband's favorite cookie and he said they " look and taste just like the ones Mom used to make." That is a supreme compliment.
