Very good cookie. I have made these often always with great results. I omit the nuts. Ingredients:
2 cups sifted flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder (check the expiration date) |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 cup crisco shortening |
1 1/2 cups brown sugar |
2 large eggs, beaten |
2/3 cup sour milk (add lemon juice to regular milk) |
1 1/3 cups quaker old-fashioned oatmeal or 1 1/3 cups rolled oats |
1 cup raisins |
1 cup chopped nuts |
Directions:
1. Sift first five ingredients. Cream shortening and sugar; add eggs; beat until smooth.
2. Add dry ingredients in small amounts alternatively with milk. (You may do this by hand.).
3. Stir in last three ingredients. Drop by teaspoonful onto greased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 deg. until golden.
