these cookies are perfect--They taste very chewy & crispy -I love them!! I reduced the amount of recipe to 1/4 the amount for two of us and it made 16 big cookies and no trouble to do that ---I used dried cranberries instead of rasins. I baked 12 min and let rest on the pan for 3 minutes and removed to rack to cool. I will be making these again for sure, as we love them -thanks for sharing your recipe!

Would have given it a 5 but I subbed the choco chips and raisins for butterscotch chips. Great base recipe though.

Pretty good, but not my favorite. I like that they have lots of oatmeal in them - that offered just the right amount of "chewiness".

Really good cookies. I used Hersey's Dark Chocolate morsels for the chocolate chips and excluded the walnuts due to a food allergy. Easy to make too. I cut the recipe in half and still wound up with almost 5 dozen cookies, but they're tasty, so I've just been sending them home with visitors. Thanks for the recipe.

These cookies are awesome! I was looking for something different, and these fit the bill. I took one reviewers tip and omited the raisins, and added toffee bits.

AWESOME!!!! These are so good!! I made the recipe exactly as written and got several dozen chewy, yummy cookies. I almost did not have a big enough bowl to mix these in and had to finish mixing with my hands. So make sure you have an extra oversized bowl, or half the recipe. Thank you for such a perfect cookie recipe, it is now in my tried and true favorites file, and will make these for Christmas (and anytime the mood strikes) for years to come.

These cookies rock! For me, they have become the ultimate cookie to add different stuff to (toffee, nuts, dried fruits, the list is endless!) They also freeze really well and so when I make them, I tend to make like double or triple the amount and am always excited when I remember those hidden gems of frozen cookie goodness.

Great cookie! I did make a number of adjustments with nuts, flour, fruit to make these a little healthier or just use what I had on hand, but the base recipe was tasty. I did have issues with sticking to the pan that others had, and mine did not flatten out, but in fairness it could be because I did make changes (including adding hempseed). Thanks for sharing, I'll be making these again!!

This is the best cookie I have ever had. I think next time I will do equal parts raisins and chocolate chips. Halved the recipe = 4 dozen. THANK YOU!

These turned out delicious, I made a few changes, I halved the recipe and used 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour and 3/4 unbleached white flour, did not use coconut (I had none in the house) and used dried cranberries instead of choc chips. I did use butter, tho'--I made them for company!

I halved the recipe as well - what a great cookie! I brought them to a meeting and every last morsel was eaten! I used Pecan Pieces too, which was a bit more money but gave a really nice taste.

These are excellent. I halved the recipe (leaving out the raisins) and ended up with 42 large, puffed-up cookies. I baked them one tray at at a time for 11 minutes. Also, I used margarine - butter probably tastes even better but not for my family. Thanks for sharing.

I work as a baker in a very busy cafe and this has become our most popular cookie. Thank you for this wonderful recipe!I always get a nice thick chewy cookie with consistent results everytime. I don't care for raisins, so i have never used them, but always add toffee bits instead for wonderful results. I am not understanding why some of you are getting a flat cookie, but what i do is just make sure i always use butter, make sure it is not too warm, and i never measure it out because 1 lb is 2 cups..no need to measure. I also always make sure to use a shiny aluminum sheet pan (which almost always gives the best results for cookie spreading),and i top it with parchment paper instead of greasing the sheet. I typically use a #40 scoop for reg size, or #20 for jumbo cookies. I Bake them just until set, and they are the perfect size and texture. HUGE seller. Good luck!

These cookies are the BEST! Don't be fooled by the amount of cookies the recipe makes, they just seem to fly out of the cookie tins. I made the original using a cookie scoop. Love that you can also make a fridge rolls; make one day then bake when you need. This one is a wonderful keeper!

These cookies are truly amazing! They really do have a taste like no other cookie - it has all of my family's favorite ingredients, yet you can't taste one single ingredient too much. And they certainly are hearty! The only problem I see with them, is that they are so good, I can't eat just one!

Very good crunchy cookie. Has all the ingredients of my favorite cookies so who wouldn't love them. Followed the directions exactly and they came out perfect. Will be sure to make again.
