Just okay, not a keeper. Crystallized ginger costs nearly $9 for 2 ounces, so I used only 1 ounce, (about 2 Tbs) and I would not have liked the full amount anyway. I think the white chocolate should not be added to the hot pan the evaporated milk and sugar were cooked because the pan is hot enough to scorch the chocolate and may be why mine seemed a little dry.

These are great! I am always asked for the recipe when I share them with others. Here are my tweaks: Reduce amount of raisins to your preference, there are already lots of them coming from the Raisin Bran cereal. Really stuff the measuring cup with lots of coconut. Increase walnuts to 3/4 cup. Use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. Resist the temptation to increase the amount of chocolate chips. Make the cookies whatever size you like. They don't have to be huge.

Very simple and pretty good. I used ground venison. I highly recommend Kikkoman or Lee Kum Kee brands of hoisin sauce. I once tried a brand of hoisin I found repulsive (starts with a D and is usually cheap).
