Freezing cold outside. Wife out of town. Just me and the dog. I decided to try this recipe but only used the directions as a guide. First of all I used whole wheat flour and all butter. I used turbinado sugar instead of white. Cut sugars to two thirds cup each then added 2 tbls of blackstrap molasses. I added another cup of oatmeal. Also added cream of tarter, nutmeg & cinnamon. Then I added a cup of raisins, a cup of chocolate chips and finally put a whole almond on top before baking. I like harder cookies so I baked them 13 min. First batch turned out very good. Second batch is smaller for more crunch.
