Rita Nowland's Fresh Apple Cookies

2 c. flour
1/4 c. milk
1 tsp. soda
1/2 c. (1 stick) margarine
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. apples, cup up, peeled
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 c. nut meats
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. currants (raisins will do, but currants make it even better!)
1 1/3 c. brown sugar, packed.
1 egg

Big, tasty cookies! Bake only nine or ten at a time on regular-size cookie sheet. In large mixing bowl, put the margarine and the first six ingredients; mix in egg and milk and start beating slowly. When well mixed, add apples, nut meats, and currants. Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees till done. While still warm, may be frosted with 10X confectioner's sugar mixed with enough lemon juice to make a paste.
