HermitsRosie's recipe
Verbatim from the notecard: "Mix as usual" If you need a little more detail: Cream butter and shortening together (or use all butter). Add sugar, then eggs. Sift dry ingredients together and add to egg mixture. Stir in raisins, dates and nuts. Chill 1/2 to 1 hour, then drop by spoonfuls (usually large spoonfuls in our house) on a greased cookie sheet. Chilling the dough makes it a little stiffer, since it's naturally pretty goopy. Bake for 8-10 minutes at 375°F. May make around 4-5 dozen, depending on size. |
