  • 3/4 cup raisins

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Tailor these cookies to suit your taste. It's okay, for example, to omit the peanuts and increase the raisins, or substitute walnuts for the peanuts.
  • tip 2
    Although quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats can be used for this recipe, the old-fashioned oats will make a chewier cookie with more texture.
