Molasses Raisin Cookies image

These old-fashioned mildly sweet cookies are dotted with walnuts and raisins. We like them soft right from the oven. Later, they crisp up and are perfect for dunking.-Denise and George Hymel, Gramercy, Louisiana

These cookies were a bit dry, but they still had a good flavor. I would recommend adding a little bit of butter to the dough to make them more moist.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for me, but they're still good. I would recommend using less sugar if you don't like your cookies too sweet.
