These cookies are spicy, moist and chewy. Reminiscent of Hermit cookies. Ingredients:
3/4 cup raisins |
1/4 teaspoon rum extract |
hot water |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon allspice |
1 (18 ounce) box spice cake mix |
3 1/2 ounces vegetable oil |
1 teaspoon rum extract |
2 eggs |
3/4 cup powdered sugar |
2 -4 teaspoons milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°. Place raisins and 1/4 tsp extract in a small bowl with hot water to cover for 15 minutes; then drain well. Mix sugar and allspice in a small bowl; set aside.
2. In large bowl, add cake mix, oil, rum extract, eggs and raisins. Mix until dough forms.
3. Shape 3/4 tablespoonfuls of dough into balls; roll in sugar allspice mixture. On ungreased (or parchment covered) cookie sheets, place balls about 11/2 apart. Flatten slightly.
4. Bake 10 - 12 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store tightly covered. Makes 4 dozen.
5. Glaze: Mix powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Drizzle over cookies with tines of a fork. Set aside until glaze is set.
