As this recipe's first reviewer I SO wanted to like these, submit a great review, and get this recipe off to a good start. The submitter describing these as having "a similar taste to chocolate-covered raisins" hooked me. Unfortunately they didn't deliver. I tasted them, was unimpressed, then had hubs taste them for his opinion. He said he couldn't even tell what he was eating, only that it was sweet. And he was right - there's no prominent or easily discernable flavor of either the chocolate or the raisins. His explanation was, "When I'm eating a chocolate chip cookie, I know I'm eating a chocolate chip cookie. If I'm eating a peanut butter cookie, I know I'm eating a peanut butter cookie. With these I dont know WHAT I'm eating." They kind of taste like an oatmeal cookie with a sweet, gooey center, except that an oatmeal cookie is better. While these are okay, and there's no fault with the recipe, you don't crave a second after eating the first and it's not a recipe I'd rush to make again.
