I made them today with mostly margarine and 1/2 stick of butter because I ran out, I really didnt see nor taste a difference.

Just thought I'd share!

    We made these for our family reunion yesterday-they were a HUGE hit! We came home with none :(

    Can someone help me with a link to the recipe?  My hubby leaves for Canada next weekend, and I always make something for their long road trip.  These may be just perfect!

    Thanks so much!  I'm not much of a kitchen lady, so I tend to overlook recipe posts -- haha -- and then, of course, when I do need them, I can't find them.

    Happy 4th!!

    Directions - preheat 325

    1. put the butter and marg in a bowl, microwave until its about halfway melted
    2. add the brown sugar - start beating and creaming it
    3. add the white sugar - beat
    4. add the vanilla - beat

    Agree, I've made them with half butter/half margarine and they were still amazing. The all-marg batch... not so much. Batter was too funny & spread out to almost make bars vs. cookies.

    Tiff - what did you sub for oatmeal raisin? 2c oats for 1c flour?

    My aunt IL made choc chip cookies this weekend, and while they were excellent, they weren't quite as good.  Nothing will measure up to the TIff cookies!

    I made them Sunday for DH's work and the Great American Bake Sale. 

    I want to try them with cocoa and chocolate chips next.  Any ideas on what ratios to use?  Would I need to add melted chocolate to get them really chocolatey?
