¼ C. shortening (like Crisco)
¼ C. butter or margarine
¾ C. sugar
1 egg
½ tsp. lemon extract
½ tsp. grated lemon peel
1 ¾ C. flour
¾ tsp. cream of tartar
¾ tsp. soda

Preheat oven to 350. Put parchment paper on cookie sheets or spray them. Cream the shortening, margarine and sugar, and then mix in the egg and extract. Stir the dry ingredients together and blend into the dough, adding the raisins last. Roll into 1” balls and place on the cookie sheets—press in a criss-cross design with a fork dipped in sugar. Bake 8-10 minutes. Makes about 3 doz.
