Loved them. If anything I would add a little more lemon extract next time. -
When I first saw this recipe, I thought it had two things that should never be together, lemons and raisins. But I was wrong, these cookies turned out great!

I made these for my cookie party and they were one of the favorites. Every tasty and a keeper. Thanks LizCl Bullwinkle -
I was about to post this very recipe as a back-up in case my poor old Cooky Book got ruined. For as long as I can remember, my Mom has made these. She always made half with raisins and half with semi-sweet chocolate chips.
