These cookies come from the (now deceased) mother of a friend. My copy of the recipe is in her handwriting and is very much a treasure. Most people believe that the cookie contains dates, not prunes. I don't bother to correct most. They are so good; why spoil it for them? (hehe) Ingredients:
1 cup butter |
2 cups brown sugar, packed |
2 eggs |
3 1/2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon clove |
1/2 cup milk |
2 cups chopped prunes |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Cream sugar, eggs and butter.
3. Mix flour, soda, salt and spices.
4. Add to creamed mixture.
5. Add milk, prunes and nuts.
6. Chill one hour.
7. Drop by teaspoonful on cookie sheet.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
