A friend of my mom's used to make these for me when I was younger. She always made them with just raisins but I've experimented over the years and found that I like them with chocolate. I make them ever year at Christmas time and share with the neighbors and my coworkers
Ingredients:
4 C flour
2 2/3 C Sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp Cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp ground gloves
2 C shortening
4 eggs
1 1/3 C buttermilk
3 C quick oats
2 C mixins
Mixins to mix and match: raisins, walnuts, chocolate chips, craisins, whatever you would like
My personal favorite is 1 C dark chocolate chips, 1 C craisins
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Mix dry ingredients (the first 6)
Add shortening, mix well
Add eggs and buttermilk, mix
Add oats and mixins
Scoop spoonfuls on to cookie sheets
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges of cookie are golden brown
Makes about 40-50 cookies
Notes
Since it makes such a large batch I sometimes split the batch in two before adding the mixins and make different cookies, such as half batch raisins half batch chocolate
