Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
This is my favorite time of the year and I love to bake these Oatmeal Raisin cookies. One of my traditions is to ask the kids their favorite cookie for me to bake. This year my daughter has asked for sugar cookies (in various shapes of choice) and my son wants the peanut butter blossoms. My favorite is the oatmeal raisin cookies that I have baked for at least the last 6+ years.
You can find the recipe on the lid of the oatmeal container, Enjoy!!!! I bake these every Christmas!
