Oatmeal Molasses Drop Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/3 cup molasses
1 3/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups old fashioned oats
3/4 cup raisins
3/4 - 1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks or 3/4-1 cup chocolate chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F.
Beat shortening, sugar, eggs, and molasses thoroughly.
Stir dry ingredients (flour-cinnamon) together and blend into wet ingredients.
Stir in oats, raisins and chocolate chips.
Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Bake 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
Note: When I used a 1 1/2-inch wide cookie scoop, I got 3 1/2 dozen cookies.
