    Betty Crocker

    Recipe Introduction


    I love these wonderful cookies. These are cookies as only Betty Crocker can do it.

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 Cup Soft Shortening
    1 Cup Brown Sugar (Packed In Cup)
    1/2 Cup Molasses
    1/2 Cup Sour Milk
    1 Teaspoon Vinegar
    2 1/2 Cups Sifted Flour
    1 Teaspoon Soda
    1/2 Teaspoon Salt
    1/2 Teaspoon Ginger
    1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon
    Raisins

    Recipe



    Mix together thoroughly the shortening, brown sugar and molasses. Stir in sour milk and vinegar. Sift together and stir in flour, soda, salt, ginger and cinnamon. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough about 2 1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Place 3 raisins on each for eyes and mouth. Bake 10 to 12 minutes (until set) in quick moderate oven (375 degrees). Allow to remain on cookie sheet 1 minute before removing. The faces take on droll expressions in baking. Makes about 4 dozen 2 1/2 inch cookies.
