A must try!
I’m an American teaching English in Austria. I made these for my students (university aged) and they were obsessed. A few said they were the best cookies they had ever eaten!!
I just substituted extra semi sweet chocolate for the white chocolate and raisins. I’ve also made these with dried cherries and semi sweet chocolate- also excellent 🙂
