Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. Whisk eggs in a small bowl, add 1/4 cup water, 1 tsp vanilla and raisins; mix well. VERY IMPORTANT let set on counter for at least 1 hour.
  3. In another bowl, combine crisco, and sugars, mix well.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients.
  5. Blend in raisin mixture - mix well.
  6. I use a cookie scoop, slightly less than 1/4 cup and place them on a greased cookie sheet. I slightly flatten them with the back of the scoop.
  7. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Do not flatten cookies a lot - just a gentle tap.other wise they will flatten out too much.
  8. Baking note: please remember to reverse position of cookie sheets halfway through baking. DO NOT OVER BAKE. Cookies should be slightly golden brown around edges. Centers will look set- let cool 1 minute on cookie sheet and then remove to wire rack to complete cool.
  9. I have used this recipe for over 30 years- always outstanding- most important thing to remove cookies from oven before they are finished- residual heat in cookies will complete cooking- and result in a cookie that is not dried out.
  10. I also add more walnuts, as I like lots of big nuts in my oatmeal cookies- I have often left the egg, raisin mixture on counter, for a couple of hours while cleaning house and came back and baked marvelous cookies.
