These are from my childhood. They aren't a soft cookie, but are really yummy... especially warmed up

Oatmeal Crispies

1 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 well-beaten eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda
3 cups quick cooking oats
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Thoroughly cream shortening and sugars; add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Sift dry ingredients; add to creamed mixture. Add oats and

nuts; mix well. Shape in rolls; wrap in waxed paper and chill thoroughly. Slice 1/4 inch thick; bake on ungreased cookie sheet in

moderate oven (350 degrees) 10 minutes. Makes 5 dozen.

+1 added to Brandi's to-do list.
