I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as good as the picture. They were a bit dry.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, but these cookies are still really good. The other flavors really balance out the raisins.

I love that these cookies are made with whole wheat flour. It makes them a bit healthier than traditional cookies.
