Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Alowishs on April 24, 2016

    As a cookie dough connoisseur, I love these. However, once they're baked into actual cookies, they lose sweetness. People who prefer less sugary sugar cookies may enjoy these. My boyfriend said, "These are not as sweet as other sugar cookies, but I like that. Could use more cinnamon for my taste." These remain incredibly moist and chewy - even when over baked. We did not place the raisin in the center, because raisins simply don't belong in cookies. Ever. But if you actually like the flavor they contribute, more sweetness would also be added. Overall, this won't become my go-to sugar cookie recipe, but it was fun to try. NOTE: They aren't kidding about lining the baking sheet with parchment. Usually, I ignore those directions, but these cookies are very sticky out-of-the-oven even on my well seasoned baking stone.
