Vanishing Oatmeal Cookies

My son loves these cookies. He's usually not much for baked goods, but he sure eats his share of these cookies! 

The recipe is right off the top of the Quaker oats box, and I have made them for years. They always turn out perfectly, and that teaspoon of cinnamon just gives them a perfect flavor. I add more raisins....can't have too many of them in these chewy cookies.

They are just plain delicious!
