Peppernuts (Elsie)

We learned to love these in Kansas. Everyone made them for Christmas. They're quite crunchy and tasty.
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or marg.
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup finely ground raisins or dried currants
1/2 cup finely chopped nuts
1/2 cup ground coconut
1-5 tbsp sour milk ( to make sour milk, add 1 tsp of vinegar to 5 tbsp milk)
Batter should be quite stiff.
Drop by tiny spoonful onto cookie sheet or roll some batter into a thin roll about the size of a pencil and cut into small morsels( should be about the size of an M&M). Place on a lightly greased or non-stick cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 until light brown, about 10 min.
Store in airtight containers.
