Normally I don't stray from my favorite Rocky Mountain Oatmeal Cookies, Rocky Mountain Oatmeal Cookies, but when I opened a new bag of Sun.Maid raisins I was impressed how fresh they were and thought I'd check out its new recipe. I had a feeling the milk the recipe was going to add something special, and even though I normally equate milk with cakey cookies, I had good vibes and decided to give it a try. My family is so glad I did! The cookies are ultra chewy and practically melt in your mouth. They are not brittle, crispy, or cakey, so if those are what you're looking for, keep on looking!
