I promised I would share with the world my "revered Persimmon cookie" recipe passed down through the ages. It's nothing difficult or fancy. Just plain old goodness!
3/4 Cup of vegetable oil ( or 1 cup shortening). I prefer oil.
1 Cup sugar
1 fresh egg
Mix the three of these together.
Add 1 Cup of persimmon pulp (almost mushy). Then add 2 Cups of flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda,
1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Stir together with egg mixture. Add 1 Cup raisins. Drop by spoonfuls on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 in oven for 10 minutes.
This will give your house a wonderful holiday aroma, and you will have delicious cookies to boot!
Men seem to really love these cookies. (Just my experience).
