| 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. | 2. Place raisins into a small saucepan, add the whiskey or water and bring to the boil over medium high heat, stirring constantly. Off the heat, cover and set aside to steep. | 3. In a large bowl, use a wooden spoon to cream together the shortening, sugars, eggs, and vanilla. | 4. In another bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt with a wire whisk. | 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the shortening mixture, mixing with a wooden spoon. | 6. Stir in the oats, then blend in the raisins and the walnuts; mix well. | 7. Use a cookie scoop or drop by heaping teaspoonfuls 2-inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. | 8. Place some granulated sugar in a small bowl. Moisten the bottom of a small glass in water and dip into sugar, then press the glass gently onto the top of each cookie to slightly flatten. | 9. Bake in preheated 350F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden brown around the edges and centers are set--do NOT over bake. | 10. Let cookies cool 1 minute on cookie sheet, then use a spatula to carefully remove warm cookies to wire rack to completely cool. DO NOT leave cookies on cookie sheet longer than a minute or two, or they will become stuck. | 11. Store in an airtight container or freezer bag; these cookies freeze well. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
