- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup raisins, ½ cup chopped nuts (optional), and/or ½ cup chocolate chips (optional).
- Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
