Cream together well the Crisco and sugar - then add the room temperature eggs and milk and also the vanilla - beat all a few minutes. In a separate bowl mix the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and Cocoa. Mix into your egg mixture. And the walnuts and chocolate chips. I don't use raisins. I also process the chocolate chips so that they're smaller or use mini chocolate chips. Preheat your oven to 350°. Roll into 1 inch size balls and space 1 & 1/2 inches. (they will definitely double in size). Bake for 15 minutes . Enjoy!
For chocolate cookie frosting, eliminate the lemon.
Lemon cookie frosting: confectionery sugar, lemon extract, water, and secret ingredient Cream of Tartar. Cream of tartar solidifies the frosting upon drying on the cookie and of course you just have to get the right consistency.
I make it into a thick paste and hand apply one by one. If it's too thin it will fall right off and only glaze the cookie. Sorry I can't give you the exact measurements today, it's just in the head!
