Persian Raisin Cookies


I love these melting-in-your-mouth cookies! For chewier cookies, refrigerate the dough beforehand and bake it for a shorter period. For crispier ones, bake the dough longer or refrigerate the baked cookies.they'll flatten out during baking so leave enough space between them.
