5 Spice Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
These oatmeal raisin cookies are a flavourful twist on a classic, adapted from a popular oat recipe. Infused with Chinese five spice and ground ginger, they offer a more complex taste than traditional versions. Using a small ice cream scoop ensures uniform size for even baking. The recipe makes 48 cookies, which are known to disappear quickly when fresh from the oven.
