I got this recipe from an old Southern Living cookbook. I make these regularly, since we all love raisin cookies and this is a good recipe. Cook time is per pan. In answer to a reviewer, yes...You do add the rasins along with the water they were cooked in. As it cools, it thickens.

- Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help create a chewy cookie.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix the dough, as this will result in tough cookies.
- Fold in the raisins and nuts. Do not press the raisins into the dough, which will also make tough cookies.
- Scoop the dough onto a greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
