Charmaqine's Oatmeal Cookies With Raisins, Dates, and Walnuts image

This sounds absolutely delicious to me, although I may have to work with it to get it diabetic-friendly for myself. But others may enjoy this while I keep it tucked away. It sounds perfect for a holiday potluck table at work. Recipe from Charmaine Haravey of Niwot, Colorado.

These cookies are so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use whatever dried fruit and nuts I have on hand. I've made them with raisins, dates, walnuts, pecans, and even dried cherries. They're always delicious.
