today is my husband's birthday and these were his birthday "cake". you see, oatmeal raisin cookies are his favorite. the recipe is one that i found years ago on recipezaar, and there is no reason to try any others. he loves them, done. you can find the recipe here. the cookies are soft, moist and chewy. i don't make any changes except to add about a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. now, i have added chocolate chips, walnuts and cranberries to dough in the past. also, i don't own a cookie scoop(hint-hint), so i just use a spoon to make a ball about an inch big and then flatten it a little with my fingers. the dough does not spread much at all, so don't go too big or thick. overall, this is just a great basic oatmeal raisin cookie that needs little or no help. enjoy.
oh, and the recipe makes a ton, too!

Happy Birthday Hub and I wish someone would make me chocolate, walnut and dried cranberry oatmeal cookies on my birthday! They look wonderful!
I'd love to have one of these dipped in ice cold milk right now. Mmmmm.
Those look super yummy!
My dad loves oatmeal raisin cookies as much as your husband does. They are like a food group for him! But yeah, they're a classic- wunnnderful.
They were excellent I had 2 of them the other day when I was watching Travis for a while. Beth is an excellent cook and baker but you want here her bragg about it I will.
These look fantastic!!! Great food pictures!
I have been looking for the perfect oatmeal cookie recipe and this is it! I loved them, my friends and their picky-eater kids loved them too! I will never try another,um, probably. This will always be the quintessential oatmeal cookie for me. Thanks!
