The boys (big & little) have been asking for cookies again, so I grabbed out my stuff & decided to make some. This recipe is a family favorite. It is one from Jeremy's mom, and I think it is Jeremy favorite cookie. At least anytime I make a different recipe he usually bites into looks a little confused & says "This isn't my moms, is it?" So I thought I might as well share it with everyone else:

Oatmeal Butterscotch Cookies
2 1/2 c. White Sugar 2 1/2 c. Brown Sugar
2 1/2 c. Shortening 5 eggs
2 Tbs. Vanilla 1/4 c. Milk
Stir & Mix it in all together. Then add:
5 c. flour 2 1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
2 1/2 tsp. Salt 2 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
Beat until it is all mixed well. Then add:
5 c. of oatmeal &
2 c. (or More) of Chocolate & Butterscotch Chips.
Bake at 350 degrees for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown.
This recipe makes a lot (like 7 dozen or so) So I would cut it in half unless you want to have cookies galore. Usually I make a full batch & freeze most of . For some reason when I make them they are almost softer after I freeze them & then thaw them. So I don't know what I am doing wrong, but either way they are delicious. So enjoy.
