Honey Drop Cookies image

This is an old photocopied recipe that looks like it originated in Hamilton, Indiana. I found it on the same photocopied page as "Grandmother's Soft Sugar Cookies". The recipe is attributed to Orpha Walber. I've never made it before as I didn't know what raisin juice was until I recently searched the web for it... Recipe #311410 courtesy of Montana Heart Song should do the trick. I have no idea on recipe yield... and as for how long it should be baked... you're guess is as good as mine....I'm really just posting this recipe for history's sake.
