Fig Recipes
This recipe was shared by our friend Edith Linson, who gave this out at her shop in Friendswood, TX founded by Quakers in
1894, due to the 5 creeks for fig preserving. Mincemeat or watermelon preserves may be used in place of fig preserves. This
is a super holiday treat too.

1 lb. shortening
1 lb. raisins
2 C. sugar
1 pint fig preserves
2 eggs, well beaten
1 tsp. salt
