Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

My son and I decided to bake oatmeal raisin cookies this afternoon. I found this recipe on Smitten Kitchen and knew it would be amazing. I wanted to add walnuts or pecans but my son opted for plain oatmeal raisin cookies with extra cinnamon. The cookies turned out thick, chewy, and so delicious. My children each ate one after school and one for dessert…they both loved them.
