    I’d love to try these cookies. Can they be made without the raisins and nuts?

      Oh yes you can. Most cookies you can leave out raisins, nuts, dried fruit that it calls for. I don’t like raisins so I never use them in a recipe and nuts are getting so expensive so I have started leaving them out.

    This cookie recipe sounds great to me.

    I have a plan of making them and using the cooked cookies as the “crust” or bottom layer of a pecan pie recipe.

    You gave some good info about how shortening makes cookies fluffy, stand up, and not runny and thin.

    However, I use half real butter for the rich flavor and half shorting for the fluff factor in my cookies and cakes. This works great for me.

    Do NOT use all butter in cookies as they will run all over the pan.

    The only kind of cookies I use all butter with are chocolate snap cookies and they come out great and crunchy.

    In a cake ALWAYS use all butter for the fat in the recipe on certain cakes, especially chocolate cakes. You do not have to worry about the fluff factor in cakes as much as you do when making cookies.

    Cookies and cakes are a specific formula and you cannot mess around with proportions but you can play around a little bit with the fat part of these recipes.
