Cookies with raisins and almonds a la Isabella

Ready to take a bit of this cookie ?
I just loved home-made American style cookies !!!! I prefer my cookies to soft and chewy, and have less of a preference for over-baked and dry cookies.

I found this recipe some years ago in a Danish magazine called Isabella. I cutted it out of the magazine and limed it into my private personalised cooking book.
