Notes: My mom used to make these a lot when we were growing up during the depression and war years. Every once in a while the poor master would give our family a bag of raisins so-this was a perfect way to use them. They are a delicious sugar cookie with that yummy filling! Needless to say with six children, they were gone almost as fast as they were made.
