An old recipe from Truro, MA. One of my favorite cookies.

• 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon (or more) cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup melted vegetable shortening
• 1/2 cup (one stick) melted unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon molasses
• 1/4 cup Hood's whole milk
• 1-3/4 cups uncooked quick-cooking oatmeal
• 3/4 cups raisins
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and salt together in a large bowl.

Stir in the remaining ingredients. Arrange by teaspoonfuls on unbuttered cookie sheets. Bake until the edges are just slightly brown, 9-11 minutes. Watch the cookies carefully and do not overbake.
