applesauce nut cookies

From my Grandma Carol Schaut

Ingredients and Instructions:

Cream – 1/2 c. shortening

1 c. sugar

1 egg

Blend in – 1/2 c. applesauce

1 tsp. vanilla

Add and stir in – 1/4 c. raisins

1/2 c. chopped nuts

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. baking powder

2 c. flour

Drop by spoon onto ungreased cookie sheets.  Flatten (dough does not spread).  Bake at 400 degrees for 12-14 minutes. 

Cookies will be a little bit doughy tasting when they are warm.

Our thoughts

These are DELICIOUS and perfect because they aren’t too sweet.  Very tasty with morning coffee, too!
