Combine the two mixtures into one bowl and stir in the oats and raisins
A thick, very sticky dough-like mixture should form

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180 degrees c and line or grease a baking tray
When the time is up, remove from the fridge
Scoop up heaped tablespoons of the dough and place on the baking tray in ‘cookie-like’ shapes
Cook in the over for approx
Minutes, or until the cookies turn lightly golden
