Steps:

• About 15 minutes before you start your cookie dough, pour water to cover the raisins completely. Let soak and be sure to drain the liquid of before putting them into the dough.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter on high speed for 2-3 minutes until soft.
