(From the Bosch Bread Store)
11/2 c sugar
1/2c light corn syrup (Karo)
1 c shortening
1/2 c margarine
2 eggs
1 t vanilla
1 c milk
1 t salt
8 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
61/2 cup all-purpose flour
In Bosch mixing bowl using wire whips, cream sugar, syrup, butter, shortening, eggs, and vanilla. Add milk and mix slowly. Add dry ingredients. (with the Bosch you don't have to sift!) Dough will be a little sticky. Refrigerate covered for 1 hour. Roll out on floured surface 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Cut out with cookie cutter. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes at 375F.
Optional Raisin Filling
2 cups raisins cooked in 3 cups water.
Add 3/4cup sugar, 1/2 tsp. vanilla, and thicken with cornstarch (about 3 Tb).
Put one big tablespoon filling between 2 dough circles. Press edges well. Bake as directed above.
(Note: it is best to use a parchment lined baking sheet for filled cookies so the cookies don't stick. It's also easier to clean up.)
