Zucchini Cookies

And yet another fine way to use up those ever popular and always growing summer squash.

1 cup butter flavored Crisco or butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp nutmeg
¼ tsp allspice
2 cups flour
2 cups oatmeal
2 cups shredded zucchini
1 cup raisins


Preheat oven to 375º

In large mixing bowl, cream the shortening and sugar together until fluffy.  Add eggs, zucchini and vanilla extract and beat well.  Combine flour, baking powder and spices together and mix well; then add oatmeal to flour.  Gradually add to mixing bowl, beating on low and scrapping sides of the bowl until mixed well.  Fold in raisins.

Scoop by tablespoons on ungreased cookie sheets two inches apart.  Bake at 375º for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned on edges.  Cool one minute then remove to wire rakes to cool completely.
