Welsh Cookies

Here is the recipe that I wrote down while watching Mom make Welsh Cookies about 30+ years ago:
Cream together 4 T. crisco, 1 1/2 C. sugar. Add 2 eggs and blend. Mix 1C. flour with 4 t. baking powder, 1 t. nutmeg and 1 t. salt. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture. When well blended, begin to add flour, about 2 cups at a time, alternately with milk. In total it will come to 8 or 9 C. flour and 2 C. milk. Before it gets too stiff to stir add 1 lb. raisins. Roll out on floured board and cut (use a juice glass for complete authenticity). Cook on dry griddle or in heavy cast iron frying pan over slow to medium heat until cooked through and lightly browned on both sides. Mmmmm
