I just made these cookies. This is just the recipe I have been looking for. Just like the ones my Aunt used to make us all the time. I am going to add more raisins though. Very good!

Good cookie, I used 3/4 cup of milk and a lot more raisins. When I make it again I'm going to top them with a glaze, that will be the finishing touch they needs.

This recipe is great! Just the right amount of spice and just chewy enough. I added ground ginger, which worked well.

Pretty yummy, if a little bland. I sprinkled the tops of the cookies with turbinado sugar before I baked them, and that sweetened them up a bit. Very cakelike texture.

Thank you so much for this recipe. I made them for Mother's Day. The recipe made alot of cookies and the plate was empty at the end of the cook out we had for my mother, not to mention the "missing cookies" my husband kept taking as soon as they came out of the oven. Do add the whole cup of Milk, I did, came out just right and they were nice and soft. I used currants, but not the dried ones.

Nice, easy, a little bland to my mind, but a big success when you're called upon to bring a batch of cookies to an event since they look smart and give the vague appearance of being healthy.

We have changed the amount of milk called for in the ingredients from 1/4 cup to 1 cup as per the original recipe submission. We hope this helps! - The Staff

Something is seriously wrong with this recipe. I had to add at least 4 times as much milk as it called for. It got to the point that I was just pouring it in and not even measuring it because the dough was so dry.
