A very old recipe that makes a simply delicious cookie
Uncle Jim's Oatmeal Cookie
3/4 cup butter or regular margarine
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp molasses
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbsp sour milk
3 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease cookie sheets. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time. Beat well after each addition. Beat in the molasses. Sift together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients alternately with the sour milk to the creamed misture. Mix well after each addition. Stir in the oats and the raisins. Drop the mixture by teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks to cool completely. Yield: about 6 dozen
