Very tasty, light, flavorful combination of tart/sweet. I used dried cranberries instead of raisins, as another reviewer suggested, and I loved it. Thanks!

I'm going to have to agree with another review about how they look. They taste great but mine didn't look anything like the picture.

I read the reviews before I made them and read about them coming out flat so I used unsalted butter and 1/2 the amount called for and they came out perfect!

These are excellent! Great lemon flavor, with a little crunch to them.

I loved these! I used golden raisins, perfect blend of sweet and tart IMO. Thanks for the post!

The best lemon cookie I have found so far. The lemon flavor is strong and what I'm looking for.

I am going to give these cookies five stars for TASTE, but the presentation was not what I was looking for. The dough was very wet, and they spread out very thinly yet had a cakey texture. They tasted delicious, but I would have been embarrased to serve them or bring them to anything. I did really enjoy the taste though, so I could see us making them again. Thanks!

Great Cookie. It's sweet and a bit tangy. I put some lemon zest insead of extract since I didn't have the extract. I think this cookie might be great with dried cranberries; might make for a very festive Xmas cookie with them.

I used about 1/4 cup lemon juice only and baked this in 2 batches. I thought it wasn't quite sweet enough so I made a little lemonly glaze out of powdered sugar, lemon juice & water and drizzled it over the cooled cookies just for an extra lemon touch. I brought these to work and my co-workers enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing a great recipe!

I might have baked them a little too long, cause I had trouble getting them off the cookie sheet. But I have a brand-new stove and am still learning its quirks. Yet they taste great, and so what if they're a little crispy. I used golden raisins to keep the "blonde" look. I just might try another batch after Christmas for a second taste test! :-)

We love these cookies!! I even add a half teaspoon more of the lemon extract to bring out the lemon flavor of the cookie. A very interesting and delightful combination and change from the "norm."

How disappointing. I followed the recipe exactly and the flavor was good but the end result, not so good. I had very flat cookies, so I added another cup of oatmeal, still flat, so I added another (now at 3 cups) and they still didn't have shape, mind you I have only cooked them for about 8 min. Very disappointing. Taste...good, presentation...terrible.

Awesome! My husband said "that's how a cookie should be-flavorful and sweet and salty and crunchy and chewy". This is my second time making them. The first I used butter because I didnt have the no trans fat shorting. This time I followed the recipe except I left out the raisons and added an extra cup of oatmeal. So good (my husband doesn't like raisins, but I liked them that way too)
