Naborhood Bakery's Raisin Filled Cookies

Naborhood Bakery's Raisin Filled Cookies
Source of Recipe: From KUTV, Channel 2 (Salt Lake City, UT) Gabby Gourmet


1 c. (2 sticks) butter or margarine
2 c. sugar
3 eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. evaporated milk
1 Tbsp. vinegar
8 c. flour, scooped (approximate)
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt

 
FILLING:
1- 1/2 c. raisins
3/4 c. water
3/4 c. sugar
1 Tbsp. + 1- 1/2 tsp. flour

Cream sugar and butter or margarine together until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract. Combine evaporated milk and vinegar and allow to stand 3-4 minutes; stir into butter/sugar mixture.

Sift together flour, soda and salt, and stir into batter until dough is well mixed. Roll dough out to about 1/4 inch thickness and cut into 3-inch rounds. For easier rolling, chill dough for a little while.

Spread a generous teaspoon of filling over half the cookies and top with a cut out round of dough. Bake at 350°F for 10 minutes or until done.

FILLING: Bring water and raisins to a simmer in saucepan. Blend together sugar and flour, and gradually add to raisin/water mixture, stirring and cooking until thick. Let cool slightly.

Final Comments: When I made these, I used the raisin filling for most of them, but used plain strawberry jam for the remainder. It was a very good substitute.

When I make them again, I would like to substitute a "simply fruit" filling, such as strawberry or apricot for the raisin filling.
