no bake chocolate oatmeal drop cookies
Back when I was a kid, my mom always made these around the Holidays. They were always SO good I could never stay out of them! This is one that I HAD to start making for my family during the Holidays. You can omit the raisins and or the pecans, but I've just always followed my Mom's recipe and added them.
