Instructions
Cookie Filling:
- Mix all the above ingredients and cook until thick but be sure to stir to prevent burning. Cool before putting onto the cookies.
Dough:
- Cream the sugar and shortening. Add the beaten egg and milk.
- Into this creamed mixture, sift the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add the vanilla and mix well.
- Roll out dough on floured surface until thin and cut with round cookie cutter or canning jar ring.
Assemble and bake cookies:
- Drop a tablespoon of the filling in the center of the rounds and top with another cookie round. Crimp the edges with a fork by pressing the two rounds together.
- Puncture each cookie with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 to 18 minutes on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
Notes
- Don't like raisins? Use cranberries or dried blueberries.
- A regular size canning jar ring is a perfect size for the circles.
