Another item from my favorite Betty Crocker 1950 cookbook. These are quick
to make and rich and chewy. The old cookbook notation says a movie star
made these for her daughter.
Mix shortening, sugar, eggs and molasses. Add flour, soda, salt, and
cinnamon. Stir in oats, nuts and raisins. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls
onto a cookie sheet. Bake 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees.
[Grandma sent me some hickory nuts once. These cookies are heavenly with
hickory nuts!]
