Can I substitute Something Else for the Raisins?

Yes you can. You can use dates, another dried fruit, or just omit them completely.

Here are the steps to make these yummy spice bars:

If your raisins are dry and chewy, soak them in hot water for several minutes before adding them to the dough.

After mixing the flour into the wet ingredients, add the raisins and pecans and mix them in.

Then just spread the cookie dough in the bottom of a 9"x13" baking dish and bake at 325° until set. Cut into bars.
