So I was looking for a good oatmeal raisin cookie recipe but no recipe seemed to fit the bill. So I decided to create my own recipe by looking at about a dozen other recipes crossing my fingers hoping that all the measurments would yeild an edible cookie. OMG!!! I was so lucky. These bad boys are crisp chewy and if I do say so myself THE BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIE YOU NEVER HAD. Please enjoy. This is a huge batch but I do not think that will be a problem once you try them. Ingredients:

1 (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened |

3 eggs |
3 cups flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda |

3 cups quick-cooking oats |
1 1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut |

3/4 cup toffee pieces |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add egg, vanilla and maple; mix well.
