Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In a large bowl, cream together butter, shortening, brown sugar, white sugar, eggs and vanilla until smooth. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Add flour mix to wet ingredients. Stir in oats and raisins. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets and pat to flatten slightly.

Bake 10-12 min until light and golden. Do not overbake! Let cool for 2 min before removing from cookie sheets to cool completely. Store in a airtight container.

Personal Notes:
I tried this recipe because it said they were a copycat of the subway cookies... and they DO taste very similar. I made really large cookies (probably about an egg sized ball of dough flattened) If you overbake they get hard so watch them carefully and you will have soft yummy cookies!
