Oatmeal cookies are my son's favorite cookies. They like all kinds of add ins to them,as well as plain.Their favorites are: pecans,raisins,dried cranberries,white chocolate chips.milk chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. When I use raisins or dried cranberries,I soak them in hot apple juice while I mix the cookie dough,then drain them and add to the dough.
