Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cream the shortening, butter and sugar together. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix together well.
- Add flour, baking soda, spices and oatmeal. Mix in dates and chocolate chips.
- Scoop out a tbsp of dough onto a parchement paper lined cookie sheet. Get 2 plates one with a bit of water on it and one with sugar in the raw. Dip the bottom of a glass in the water then in the sugar in the raw. Press this on top of the cookie just to flatten, repeat with each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes.
- Option: Instead of using milk chocolate chips get a chocolate bar break along the individual lines and lay on a cookie as it comes out of the oven. Top with another hot cookie and move to rack to cool.
