    NOTES: 1) If you can't find raspberry vinegar, any fruit vinegar would work. Or just use white vinegar. 2) If you don't want to use rum extract, use any other flavor you like, or just use vanilla. 3) You might like to add mini chocolate chips, or press a chocolate candy into the center of each cookie before baking.
