INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place raisins in small bowl. Add rum and let stand at least 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
3. Combine flour, salt, baking soda, and spices in a large bowl. Using an
electric mixer beat butter and 1 cup sugar in another large bowl to blend.
Beat in molasses. Beat in dry ingredients. Stir in raisins with rum. Cover
bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate dough overnight.
4. Divide dough in half. Roll out 1 dough piece on lightly floured surface
to 1/4-inch thickness. Using 3-inch diameter cookie cutter, cut dough into
rounds. Transfer rounds to non-stick baking sheets. Sprinkle cookies with
sugar. Bake until puffed about 8 minutes (cookies will become firmer when
cooled). Transfer baking sheets to racks; cool 5 minutes. Transfer cookies
to racks; cool completely. Repeat with rest of dough. (Can be made 3 days
ahead. Store in airtight container.)

A Message from our Provider:
“Thankfulness to God is a recognition that God in His goodness and faithfulness has provided for us and cared for us, both physically and spiritually. It is a recognition that we are totally dependent upon Him; that all that we are and have comes from God. #Jerry Bridges”
