I really wanted to find a cookie recipe like the one my mother used to make for us when we got home from school. Plus I wanted a recipe that I could make with my grandson. Her recipe is lost. But, after tweaking some other recipes, I think I finally got it...hope you enjoy it.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup crisco (softened)
1/2 cup butter (softened)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon vanilla

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup coarsley chopped pecans or 1 cup walnuts
1 1/4 cups quaker oats (not the quick-1 minute)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 deg.
2. Beat together softened Crisco, butter and sugars in large bowl.
3. Beat in milk, vanilla and egg.
4. Stir in sifted flour, salt and baking soda.
5. Stir in chips, nuts and oats.

8. Cool 2-3 minutes then transfer to cooling rack or paper towel.
