I'm embarrassed to admit that it never occurred to me to put a chocolate drizzle on oatmeal raisin cookies. I always kept my chocolate and raisins separated (though I have mixed chocolate and dried cranberries with near-reckless abandon) when it comes to oatmeal cookies. If a picture is anything to go on - and a mouthwatering photo often is - then I have been missing out.
The Fanatic Cook posted the recipe for these Oatmeal Raisin Cookies just the other day. The cookies themselves are a healthier makeover of the classic cookie recipe found on boxes of Quaker oatmeal, with significantly less sugar than the original recipe called for and whole wheat pastry flour instead of all purpose. The reduction in sugar sounds like it would be worth a shot for anyone watching his or her intake, although the chocolate-drizzle strategy could certainly be applied to just about any recipe you choose.
