Mother'S Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup corn flakes or 1 cup wheat flakes cereal
3/4 cup golden raisin

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350. Don't grease the baking sheets.
Put the shortening, sugar, and egg in a mixing bowl. Beat until smooth. Add the baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and flour and beat until well blended. Add the oats, cornflakes, and raisins. This is going to be a stiff dough, but exert a little vigor and stir until the oats, flakes and raisins are well distributed.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheets about 1-inch apart. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool.
