16 ounce package of mixed dried fruit

1 1/2 cups raisins

1 1/2 cups walnuts

3 cups flour  (divided)

1 1/2 cups brown sugar

1 cup butter, softened

4 eggs

3 tablespoons milk

1/2 cup bourbon

3 teaspoons soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoons cloves

1 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg

Start by getting out two good sized bowls.  (This recipe makes a lot of cookies.)

 In one combine the dried fruit, raisins,walnuts and one cup flour to coat all.

 

In second bowl cream brown sugar, and butter.  Add eggs one at a time.  Add milk and bourbon

Add two cups flour, soda, salt, cloves and nutmeg.

Drop  1 heaping teaspoons  on ungreased baking sheet @ 325 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned.

They disappear like magic.

 

I am going to try the recipe without the fruit too, as I know that will also make a good cookie.
