Zucchini Cookies

With my over-productive Zucchini plant I needed to come up with something other than zucchini bread. I especially wanted something that I could pack in the kids lunches now that school will be starting back up. Here's what I came up with. These are moist and cake-like, I think they'd be great with cream cheese frosting.

Zucchini Cookies

1 cup sugar, 2 cups grated zucchini, 1/2 cup shortening, 2 cups flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 cup raisins (or however many you want).

Mix all ingredients and bake in a 375 oven. If you use a Tablespoon to make the cookies bake for 12-14 minutes, if you use something smaller bake for 8-10 minutes.
