Ingredients:

  • 1 dash salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 2 tbsp vinegar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 4 tsp cornstarch , dissolved in
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 1/2 cups shortening
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract ( lemon or almond could be used)
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Directions:

  1. For filling, mix raisins, salt, sugar, nutmeg, and vinegar in a sauce pan. Put on to boil and when boiling, add cornstarch dissolved in water. After it comes to a full boil again, remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  2. For dough, cream the shortening, sugar, and eggs, and then add the salt, extract, milk, and nutmeg. Add enough flour (about 5 cups) to make the dough easy to handle.
  3. Roll dough on a floured surface to a thickness similar to pie crust (about 1/8 inch). Use a cookie cutter to cut circles about 3 inches across. Drop a teaspoon of filling on a circle and cover with another, pressing out all air and press around the edges to seal.
  4. Optional: Brush top surface with milk and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
  5. Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 F for 18-20 minutes.
