Ingredients

1 1/2 cups seedless raisins
3/4 cup shortening
1 cup sugar

1/4 cup molasses
2 1/4 cups sifted flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves

Directions:

Chop raisins, as this makes the cookie chewy as well as crunchy. Beat together shortening, sugar, and egg. Blend in molasses. Blend in flour sifted with soda, salt, and spices. Mix in raisins. Chill dough. Shape dough into small balls and roll in additional sugar, if desired. Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake in moderately hot oven 375°, 8–10 minutes. Remove to cooling rack.
