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 1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
6 Tbsp (3/8 cup) molasses
Add 1 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
Stir in 2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup nuts
1 cup 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!]
