Wendy from the Dairy State, is looking
for a recipe for Applesauce cookies in
the 1/30/10 newsletter. Wendy, this is
the one my Grandmother, Mother and I
have made. They are so good! Nancy's
Bisquick recipes also has a good one.
Applesauce Cookies
1 cup brown sugar
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup raisins
3/4 cup chopped nuts
Combine flour, salt, cinnamon and baking
soda - stir well. Place flour mixture in
a clean mason jar. Pack down tight so
everything will fit in the jar. (Use a
spoon or a mallet.) Add other
ingredients, one item at a time, packing
each layer down.
Put the lid on the jar and tie a ribbon
around the lid. You can add a
personalized label, if you wish. As an
added touch, tie a wooden spoon to the
lid with a piece of ribbon.
Instructions For Gift Card:
To make Applesauce Cookies:

until well combined. Drop teaspoons of
dough on a greased cookie sheet. Bake
for 8 - 12 minutes at 350 degrees F.
