OLD TIME FAVORITE FILLED COOKIES
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. Crisco
1 egg
1 c. sweet milk
1 tsp. vanilla
3 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cream of tartar
FILLING:
1 c. chopped raisins or figs
1 tsp. flour
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. flour
Mix filling ingredients in saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring
constantly until thick. Burns easily. Let cool.
Next cream sugar and Crisco until fluffy. Mix in egg and vanilla. Beat
well. Stir in milk. Sift flour with soda and cream of tartar and add to creamy
mixture, work into a dough (if too sticky to roll, chill 20-30 minutes). Roll
on lightly floured board, 1/8 inch thin. Cut into pairs with biscuit cutter.
Place 1 rounded teaspoonful of filling on one and top with other. Firmly
press edges together. Bake on greased cookie sheet 15-20 minutes or until
golden brown in 375 degree oven.
