Directions:

COOKIES:
1. Grease 1 or more cookie sheets. Using an electric mixer, cream together butter, shortening and sugar in a bowl until fluffy. Add eggs and beat until mixture is light in color. Add buttermilk.

2. Sift together flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and allspice; stir into creamed mixture. Fold in oatmeal, raisins, walnuts and vanilla, blending well.

3. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto cookie sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes; drizzle with brown butter icing.

ICING:
In a small saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove saucepan from heat; stir in 3 cups sifted powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Stir in enough water (3 to 4 tablespoons) to make an icing of drizzling consistency. Drizzle on warm cookies.
