Grandma Yaw's Raisin and Nut Cookies

These are yummy cake like cookies. I'm not too fond of raisins so I usually leave them out.

1 cup cold coffee
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup margarine
2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup raisins

Dissolve soda in coffee. Work brown sugar into margarine. Add eggs. Mix in coffee mixture. Add flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Stir in walnuts and raisins. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes.

These don't taste like coffee at all. If you aren't supposed to have caffeine you can use decaffeinated coffee.

Smiles,
Linda
