MUZ'S OATMEAL COOKIES 
2 c. butter
2 c. sugar
4 eggs
1/2 c. milk
4 c. flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. nutmeg
2 tsp. baking soda
4 c. quick oats
2 c. raisins

My grandmothers secret ingredient was bacon fat - if you want a really great cookie, use 1 cup bacon fat and 1 cup butter.

Cream butter and sugar, add eggs - beat. Stir cinnamon, nutmeg and baking soda in flour. Add 1/2 flour to bowl - beat in. Add the milk, beat, add remaining flour mixture. Stir in oats and raisins. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

Muz gave this recipe to me as a double batch, it will yield approximately 100-120 cookies. She had a lot of grandchildren eagerly waiting by the oven!
