The cookies were a bit too dry for my liking. I think I would add an extra egg yolk next time to make them more moist.

I accidentally added too much cinnamon, and the cookies were a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll be sure to measure the spices more carefully.

I'm not a huge fan of raisins, so I substituted dried cranberries instead. They worked perfectly in these cookies and added a nice tartness.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the cookies turned out perfectly. They were golden brown and chewy on the inside, just like I like them.

I love that these cookies are not too sweet. The spices help to balance out the sweetness of the raisins and oats, making them the perfect snack or dessert.

OMG! I just tried Beth's Spicy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies for the first time, and I am amazed! The combination of flavors is out of this world. The oatmeal and raisins provide a nice chewy texture, while the spices add a delightful warmth that lingers in
