Notes
If you have salted butter, that's fine! Just omit the salt in the recipe.
I like to slightly underbake mine, so they are super soft and chewy!
You can use both regular and/or golden raisins in this recipe.
You can use quick oats instead of old fashioned, but the texture will be a little different.
