We always added a bag of chocolate chips or raisins or nuts or
some combination.
This is the recipe my grandmother always made. It's softer
than a lot of oatmeal cookies, and to me, no other recipe
ever measured up. This came from the Modern Priscilla Cookbook,
which was published in the 1890s. I wish I still had it.
