The Ultimate Oatmeal Raisin Cookie

I’ve titled this recipe the ultimate oatmeal raisin cookie because these are some of the best oatmeal raisin cookies I’ve ever had. They only thing that would make them better is if you add some chocolate chips to the mix. Chocolate makes everything taste better in my opinion. My friend Cindy loves to make and test dessert recipes. She reads the reviews of several recipes, tests them out and makes adjustments when needed. She’s also the queen of cake pops and shared her St. Patrick’s Day Cake Pops here. She loves to share her gifts from the kitchen and I’m often a lucky recipient. Cindy shares how she came across this oatmeal raisin cookie recipe.

Whenever I am missing my mother (which during the spring it’s quite frequently because of her birthday and Mother’s Day), I find myself in the kitchen channeling my mom’s love of baking. We love sweets at our house and everyone who knows me usually knows I always have some type of baked goodies on hand. Recently, my husband requested oatmeal raisin cookies. My first reaction was – YUCK! That’s my LEAST favorite cookie, why would he want me to make those??? But, I was up for the challenge and went on a hunt to find the perfect recipe to try.
