DELICIOUS RAISIN-FILLED COOKIES
These cookies are my husband's favorite and are a must-have on four-wheeling trips because his grandma used to bring an ice-cream bucket full of them when they went out for a ride in the hills. I've tried other recipes I found on line, and they weren't what he remembered, so I finally tracked down Grandmas recipe and it's great. The vinegar in the filling gives it a tang rather than syrupy sweetness, and the cookie crisps up nicely.

GRANDMA'S RAISIN FILLED COOKIES
My Grandmother always had these on hand whenever we would come to visit. We always gobbled them up. I never truly appreciated them tho, until I finally was given the recipe and realized the TIME that went into them. I recommend making the filling one day and the cookies the next.. just saves you that much time. I also like to just underbake a hair... I'll probably be strung and hung for sharing her recipe..:)
