All-Bran* Original Jumbo Raisin Spice Cookies image

My mom used to make these years ago, from a recipe she got on an ALL BRAN cereal box. I found this on the Kellogg's website, and it sounds right. They are VERY yummy! We just called 'em 'Breakfast Cookies', and if she was gonna let me have them for breakfast, I wasn't about to complain! (I use the All Bran that looks like little twigs)

JUMBO RAISIN COOKIES



Jumbo Raisin Cookies image

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.
