Method
Tap a step to mark it done.
Step 1: Beat eggs. Stir in oil, vanilla and lemon rind.
Step 2: Blend in sugar until the mixture thickens.
Step 3: Sift together flour, baking powder and salt; add to the egg mixture. (The batter will be soft.)
Step 4: Add raisins or nuts.
Step 5: Drop by teaspoons about 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Step 6: Stamp each cookie flat with the bottom of a glass dipped in sugar (lightly oil the glass, then dip in sugar). Keep dipping so the bottom stays covered.
Step 7: Bake at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 8: Remove immediately from the sheet and cool on a rack.
What we changed or couldn’t read (2)
- Oil quantity printed as 'з cup' (garbled); 2/3 cup is a best guess.
- Glass instruction garbled ('lightly glass, ti lip in sugar'); read as lightly oil the glass, then dip in sugar.
