Fresh Apple Cookies

I wait all year to make these! Perfect for our snappy Ohio autumn days. It's really starting to get pretty, now. The leaves are turning after a very long, hot summer.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter or margarine
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 eggs 1/4 c milk
• 1 3/4 cups chopped apple
• 1 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

• 2 cup flour
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp. clove

Directions

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and milk and mix well. Stir in flour, spices, salt and baking powder. Stir in apples, raisins, and walnuts. Drop by teaspoon on GREASED baking sheet. Bake 12 minutes at 350 degrees F. Makes about 3 dozen. These are very moist and tend to stick if stacked. I always use waxed paper between cookies.
