For a richer flavor, try using browned butter instead of shortening. Soaking the raisins in warm water or rum for 30 minutes before adding them to the dough will make them plumper and juicier. Add chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch and flavor. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
