Directions: 
Mix brown and white sugars together, get all lumps out. Add eggs and mix 
well until smooth. Add shortening, mix until smooth; add vanilla and mix 
well. Add flour to baking soda and salt, sift together. Add to above.
Add chocolate chips and nuts, mix well. Now start adding Quaker oats a 
little at a time (1/2 cup). Mix very well. You may not need all three 
cups if batter starts to become to dry. Use your own judgement. Place on 
greased cookie sheet by rounded teaspoon, about 1 1/2 inches apart.
Bake approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool on racks. Makes 6 to 7 
dozen.
