A friend gave me this recipe many years ago, and it's since become a family favorite. I love the aroma of these cookies as they're baking. Ingredients:
1 cup shortening |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
3 cups old-fashioned oats |
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
1/2 cup golden raisins |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine the oats, flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in walnuts and raisins.
2. Drop by tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: 5 dozen.
