Oatmeal raisin cookies

From the NYT recipe.

Attempt 1 at Ken and Lauren’s

Worked well

• Delicious and stayed soft for a while

Didn’t work so well

• I think we had to bake longer, maybe 15 min or so
• The flavor felt a bit simple to me

Attempt 2 at home

• Used nutmeg and cardamom for an interesting flavor profile. I’d suggest cutting the nutmeg a little. Maybe the recipe is designed for very stale nutmeg
• They really flattened, especially in the convection toaster. On the latter batches, I used the full sized oven and that worked better but I had to wait longer for it to heat up. They were still flatter than attempt 1 though.
