While many Acadians settled into what is now Lousiana, others settled into parts of Canada influencing the cuilinary traditions of that nation. This 100 year old recipe is a family fovorite from the kitchen of Darlene Dorey and found on the Internet. I love raisn cookies and this one truely looks a winner. The original posting did not offer cooking times or yield, but I'm estimating for this untried recipe based on baking experience. Once tested, I will modify. Ingredients:
2 cups brown sugar |
1 cup raisins |
1 cup butter, softened to room temperature |
4 1/2 cups flour |
3 eggs |
6 teaspoons baking powder |
1 cup milk |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mix the ingredients together in the order given.
2. Drop by heaping teaspoon onto greased cookie sheet.
3. Bake in 350°F oven until lightly brown, about 10-15 minutes.
