The folks at work loved these! I thought the cookies were a little bland so I drizzled them with a standard powdered sugar/milk/vanilla extract icing. I also didn't have any raisins, so I used a cup of chopped walnuts instead. I had to bake them for 16 minutes in my oven.

Good cookies. Very cake-like. I omitted the rasins and frosted with a cream cheese frosting.

I followed the recipe exactly, aside from adding some more spices, and the cookie dough came out more like batter. This resulted in a very soft cake like cookie. I brought them into work and they were devoured.

I love oatmeal raisin cookies and this was such a good modification on that type of recipe! It was delicious! I might not use so much butter next time.

I liked these cookies better than my husband. I added more oats and spices as per other readers and made them into bar cookies (no time for regular cookies). I really enjoyed the flavor and I added craisins and white chocolate chips!

This is an excellent cookie. Based on what others said, I used 1 cup of oats and baked a little longer. A terrific tasting cake like cookie that will hold up well in a lunch box or cookie jar. I also used chocolate chips but I think raisins would be equally delicious.

Delicious cookies! I followed the others' advice and added LOTS more spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice),extra oatmeal and flour, choc chips, and walnuts. I doubled the recipe and had no problems. I also sprayed the pan with oil.

Yummy pumpkin cookies! I changed a few things...applesauce instead of butter, a little pumpkin spice, 1/2 whole wheat flour. They were very sticky so i was a little worried...but they just needed to be baked a tad longer. (11-12min) They turned out great and low in fat and high in fiber!

These cookies are light and airy and definitely not too sweet to the taste. Overall the flavor is lovely which is what gets it a high rating. The problem with this is that there definitely needs to be more oatmeal and I used 1 whole teaspoon of cinnamon. I estimate total will be about three cups of oatmeal altogether. The big adjustment in the oatmeal is why I only rate it three stars. Other than that it is a fine recipes and I will definitely make it again.
