Como fazer Mrs Jones Cookies

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the Crisco and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the raisins.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan before frosting.
For the icing: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice, adding powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency. Start with 1 cup of powdered sugar and add more as needed.
Spread the icing evenly over the cooled bars.
Cut into squares and enjoy!
