Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

I made oatmeal raisin cookies for choir practice treats last Sunday. They were terrific, as usual, (I attribute it to the recipe not the chef) and a lot of people asked for the recipe. So, I typed it up... and I figured as long as I had an electronic version of the recipe, I should post it here for any interested people.

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, from Pauline & John Colton
(originally from a Meridian, ID, Relief Society cookbook)

Ingredients:

1 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 ½ cup flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon

3 cups oats
1 cup raisins


Directions:

1. Cream together shortening, sugar, and brown sugar.
2. Mix in vanilla, eggs, flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.
3. Sir in oats and raisins
4. Bake at 375 deg F for 9-10 mins.

Alternately: use 1 cup chocolate chips instead of the cinnamon and raisins to make terrific Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies!
