Add a photoThis recipe for old fashioned cookies comes from Great-Grandma Alice. She was by all accounts a loving wife and mother but much more of a Mary than a Martha. So when she made these cookies for her family they were a special treat for all. Originally they were made with large soft raisins that were grown and dried locally, If you can't find something like that measure the raisins in a liquid measure cup and barely cover with boiling water for a few minutes to soften.
