Pioneer Cookies

Okay- all you people who live in Utah- here is a pioneer recipe to celebrate Pioneer Day this Week!
This was actually on Channel 2 News a few days ago. Enjoy!

Ingredients:


1 cup Brown Sugar
1 cup Butter
1 tsp. Vanilla
4 Eggs, beaten
4 cups Whole Wheat Flour
4 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tbsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. Allspice
3 cups Apples (finely chopped)
2 cups Raisins

Directions:

Measure all dry ingredients in a medium bowl and mix together with a spoon or spatula. Place brown sugar and butter in a large bowl and cream together. Add vanilla and eggs and beat until well mixed and creamy. Stir in the dry ingredients and then add the apples and raisins. Mix well. Bake in a 350-degree oven for 10-12 minutes. Do not over bake. You can test for doneness by inserting a toothpick. If it comes out clean they are done. Store in an air tight container. These freeze well.
