Another old family recipe :) 1 cup shortening, soft 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup firmly-packed brown sugar 2 eggs 1/2 tsp vanilla 1 1/4 cups sifted all purpose flour 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp salt 3 cups oats, uncooked Beat shortening, sugars, eggs and vanilla together until creamy. Sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Add to creamed mixture; blend well. Stir in oats. Shape to form 1-inch balls. Place on greased cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake in preheated oven(350 degrees) 12-15 min. Cool about 2 min, then remove cookies from cookie sheets. For variety, add 1 cup raisins, 1 cup salted peanuts, 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate pieces or chips or 1 cup coconut with the oats. Makes 5 1/2 dozen (Source: unknown)
