Raisin Filled Cookies

Ingredients:

3 eggs
2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. white sugar
1 c. shortening and butter
1 c. milk
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
Enough flour to make stiff enough to roll.

FILLING:
2 c. raisins
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. water (add more if needed)
1 tsp. vanilla
After cool spread on cookies.
Black walnuts may be added if desired.

Directions:

Mix all cookie ingredients. Roll out dough and cut into desired shape. Bake at 350 for approximately 9 minutes. Cookies will be hard.

After filling is cool spread on one cookie. Place another cookie on top. Place in a cloth lined pan and store in a cool place for a day or two until the cookie becomes soft.

We always had these cookies at Christmas time. This is my all time favorite cookie.
