- 3 1/2 cups flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup shortening
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk

Method
- Mix dry ingredients in your largest mixing bowl. Cut in shortening until mealy. Add beaten egg, milk, and raisins; mix until all ingredients are moistened and dough holds together. Dough will be very stiff.
- Preheat pancake griddle to 350 degrees F. A few drops of water should dance on the surface when hot enough.
- Roll out dough on floured board to 1/4" thick. Cut with pizza wheel, scissors, or 2" cookie cutter.
- Lightly oil hot griddle. Place cookies on it without crowding. As the bottoms brown, the tops become puffy. Then turn with spatula and brown on the other side.
