Add this one to your box; it's worth your time and ingredients. It is a comfortingly familiar cookie but subtly different that you expect. I won't divulge CI's secret, but I will remember its lesson when I pull out my spices next cooking-baking time.

This is one instance where size matters. Mind your cookies as they approach the end of cooking time. I found the published times did not reflect my reality. At all. Stupid non-standardized ovens.

My amendments: Used Sucanat instead of brown sugar, plumped my raisins in hot water, added a cup of tasted, chopped pecans.

Future change: mess with the sugar. The cookies were a little sweet for my tastes, but altering the sugars will change the chewiness. Good thing I'm up to the challenge.
