    Good, but I made several changs to cut the fat. Used eggbeaters and light butter, splenda, and brown sugar blend (splenda) still good. Thank for sharing this recipe! - 12/6/08

    I used half whole wheat flour and half white flour. I got 108 or 5 dozen but I usually make my cookies kind of small for all the little people in my life :) - 4/26/12

    These were fabulous! My hubby does not like oatmeal raisin but he will eat these. I subsituted whole wheat flour instead of regular and used unsalted butter & was still fabulous. I did half a batch. YUMM! - 3/1/12

    Freeze for later? I don't think so. These are SO good! Crispy on the bottom, but chewy, I can hardly stop eating them. I just baked two dozens, and for some reason there are two missing :) - 9/13/09
