These are just delicious. I got about 4 doz. using my cookie scoop. Made them exactly as written, except I did half a cup of raisins and half a cup of chocolate chips because I couldn't decide what I wanted more, lol. I sent a dozen home with my SIL just to get them away from me! They are soft, chewy, and were perfectly cooked in 15 minutes. I worried that the batter was a bit soft and runny (I used soft margarine in mine instead of butter) but they were totally perfect once they cooled off. Off to have a few more before bed! -
very good. makes a very soft cookie. I may add chocolate chips or nuts next time. Thanks -
Oh boy! I just love PB cookies and these were fantastic! I did leave out the raisins as I do not care for them, and the oatmeal gave them such a different texture than the usual. I will definetely be making these again!!! Thank you Fauve! :)

<p>September 15, 2007: Here's a photo of me and my two girls before leaving our hotel room to go to an Avett Brothers concert. We're all huge fans of the group. We're also huge fans of each other. It's fun to have adult children. <br /> <br /> <br />--- About me: I'm an artist, and art teacher to kids kindergarten age through 8th grade. My life whirls at a breakneck pace. I teach approximately 800 students, and have 30 different classes each week. It's crazy!!! The rewards, however, are the numerous hugs and good vibes I get from my students. If I didn't have my good-looking husband to stabilize me, I'd surely be sporting a straight-jacket. Oh, and did I mention my yarn obsession? I've made hundreds of crochet items in the past few months, and have a little shop on etsy. Check out my website when you have the time:</p>
