"I made a variation of this over the holidays- basically I omitted the raisins because I forgot them on my shopping list. They came out wonderfully anyway. To add a touch more sweetness, without overdo..." See moreing it, I put a simple sugar glaze on the top of each cookie. They came out quite nicely."
