    Holiday Pecan Cinnamon Raisin Cookies

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup butter or margarine -- softened
    1/3 cup granulated sugar
    1 Egg yolk
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1 cup flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    1/2 cup natural raisins
    1/3 cup chopped pecans

    Recipe





    Cream butter and sugar. Beat in yolk and salt. Mix in flour
    and cinnamon just to blend thoroughly. Mix in raisins and
    pecans to distribute evenly. On lightly floured surface, roll
    into a 12" long. Wrap securely and refrigerate at least 1
    hour and up to 1 week. With sharp knife, cut 1/3" thick
    slices, and place 1" apart on baking sheets. Bake in
    preheated 350 degree oven 15 to 20 minutes until cookies
    are set and bottoms are lightly browned. Remove to racks
    to cool completely. Decorate as desired with melted
    semi-sweet or white chocolate, and top with colored
    sprinkles, raisins, nuts, or candied fruit pieces. Allow to set
    before storing in layers between sheets of waxed paper in
    airtight container.
