Frost-Bites
Recipe from Sun Maid Raisins
3/4 cup raisins
3 Tbs orange juice
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tsp orange peel
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 cup rolled oats
8 oz white chocolate wafer (baking chips will do)
1 tsp vegetable oil
In a small bowl, combine orange juice and raisins; let stand and plump overnight.
In a larger bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg and orange peel.
In another bowl, combine flour and baking soda; stir into butter mixture. Add raisins, leftover liquid, and oats. Mix well.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto greased cookie sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly and bake at 350 degrees F for 10-12 minutes. Transfer to racks and cool completely.
In a small, deep, microwave-safe bowl, heat white chocolate and oil for about 3 1/2 minutes on LOW power, stirring once. Let stand 2 minutes then stir until smooth.
Dip 1/3 of each cookie in the mixture and set on waxed paper-lined surface. Chill until chocolate is firm.
Makes about 3 dozen.
