Sugar Cookies & Raisin Filled Cookies

I haven't tried this recipe yet, but I need to give back the recipe card so I thought I would post it here and hopefully try it out this weekend.

Sugar Cookies
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup soft margarine
1 egg
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
3-1/4 cups flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
----------
Cream sugar, margarine, egg, sour cream and vanilla. Add dry ingredients. Roll out about 1/8 - 1/4 inch thick. Cut out in desired shapes. Bake at 400° for 8-10 minutes.

Use these cookies to make raisin filled cookies.

Raisin Filling
2 cups raisins
1 cup water
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts
----------
Boil the raisins in the water until the water is almost gone. Then add the remaining ingredients. Boil until blended and thickened. Allow to cool before putting on dough.

To make cookies, roll out cookie dough, and cut out in circles. Place 1 tsp. raisin mix on cookie slice and top with another cookie. Bake at 400° for 8-10 minutes.

*I was informed that these cookies really puff up while baking so don't roll them too thick. Also, they need to be refrigerated if you don't eat up quickly or they will go bad. If you try this recipe before I do, leave a comment and let me know how it is. If I don't bake them this weekend, I won't get a chance until mid August because we plan to stay busy! I'll add a picture when I make
them.

*The gal who gave me the recipes says she doesn't add the sugar to the raisin filling because the raisins make it pretty sweet.
