  {Our family's favorite fall cookie}

Combine:

1 1/2 C. flour

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. baking soda

5 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

Set aside

Beat in a separate bowl:

1/2 C. Crisco + 1/2 C. softened butter

(can also use 1C. butter or 1 C. margarine; this is just how I do it).

1 C. granulated sugar

1 C. brown sugar, packed

Add:

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla

Mix in:

the flour mixture

3 C. oats, 1 cup at a time

1 C. raisins

Drop by 1/4 cupfuls, about 4 inches apart on cookie sheet.

Bake at 350, 10-13 minutes. 

You can really make any size you want, just adjust the bake time accordingly.
