“A chewy oatmeal cookie with butterscotch chips and chocolate chips. Nuts also taste good.” - by N. Michno

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In a large bowl, cream together shortening, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in egg, then stir in vanilla. Combine flour and baking soda, and mix into the batter. Mix in oats and chocolate and butterscotch chips. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 9 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are toasted. Cool on wire racks.

"This was a good cookie but I found it kind of dry. I baked it for 11 minutes, which may have been too long. Also, I used 2 1/2 cups of oats rather than 3, and I think next time I'll only use 2...." See more"
