I have not tried these cookies. I'm posting this for safe keeping. I found this recipe in The Breakfast Book. These cookies are crisp, and filled with irregular crunch and raisins.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup corn flakes or 1 cup wheat flakes cereal
3/4 cup golden raisin
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350. Don't grease the baking sheets.
2. Put the shortening, sugar, and egg in a mixing bowl. Beat until smooth. Add the baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and flour and beat until well blended. Add the oats, cornflakes, and raisins. This is going to be a stiff dough, but exert a little vigor and stir until the oats, flakes and raisins are well distributed.
3. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheets about 1-inch apart. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool.
