ZUCCHINI RAISIN COOKIES
This favorite old recipe means a lot to me, since it was given to me by a good friend. That friend, in turn, received it from her great-grandmother. I'm always looking for ways to use zucchini (I even add it to my spaghetti sauce), so this was a welcome addition to my recipe file.

Shredded zucchini is the secret ingredient in these nicely spiced cookies topped with cream cheese frosting and a few raisins. I prefer the Mexican vanilla.
