These are so good!! Very brown sugar-y and sweet. My roomie, who isn't fond of raisins, even said these were delish!
I found this recipe on the back of a box of Cascadian Farm Maple Brown Sugar Granola. Veganized it and - voila! Delicious and quite popular cookies. I would definitely make these again, and experiment with a few other ingredients. The recipe calls for pecans, which I didn't have at the time. I would love to try them with pecans, or even almonds or walnuts... yum!
