Ingredients
- 2 c oatmeal (quick oats? regular oats? prepared oatmeal?)
- 2 1/2 c flour
- 1/2 c lard or 7 T shortening
- 1/2 c butter
- 1/2 t baking soda dissolved in...
- 1/2 c sour milk
Filling
- 1 lb dates, finely chopped
- 1 c sugar
- 1 c hot water
Note: 1 c dates to 1/2 c sugar is a good ratio
Preparation
Combine the ingredients for the date filling and cook slowly until mixture is fully cooked to a paste consistency, remove from heat.
Dissolve the baking soda into the sour milk. Combine all the ingredients for the cookie dough and roll on a well-floured board. Using a large biscuit cutter, cut the dough into circles and add some filling to half of each circle. Fold the other half over the filling.
Bake the cookies at 375 degrees for 10 minutes??? (original recipe doesn't say).
