Found another good fund raiser cookie recipe. Cream together shortening,
sugars, eggs and vanilla. Sift together flour, soda, salt, baking powder
and cloves. Mix the creamed mixture with flour mixture. Fold in the drained
fruit cocktail and nuts. Drop by spoonfuls on cookie sheet. Bake 15
minutes at 400 degrees. Cookies are best after sitting for one day. You may
use a powdered sugar icing to spread on cookies, if desired.
