Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

I found this recipe on the web. The cookies turned out good. I tried it at 10 minutes and the cookies were gooey. I tried it at 15 minutes and they were way over. At 12 they were a little bit better.

Also, I used pecans instead of walnuts.

Now that I think about it, I think the cookies I made were too big. I used a #12 ice cream scoop. Maybe I’ll get a set of smaller ice cream scoopers this year for Christmas.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup shortening

  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts (use 1/2 cup if using raisins)
  • 1 cup raisins (optional)
