2 c Shortening
2 c White sugar
2 c Brown sugar
4 Eggs
2 ts Vanilla
1 1/2 c Chocolate chips
2 ts Baking soda
1 ts Baking powder
4 c Flour
4 c Rice krispies
3 c Rolled oats

1 ts Salt
1 c Chopped pecans
Cream shortening, brown sugar, white sugar, 4 beaten eggs, and
vanilla together. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder,
baking soda, and salt. Mix dry ingedients to blend. Add, rice
krispies, rolled oats, coconut, pecans and chocolate chips.
Begin adding dry ingredients to creamed shortening mixture, this
mixture will get stiff, and unless you have dough hooks, it will
become necessary to mix by hand. If needed, add 1 tb water to
moisten just a bit. After you have added all ingredients and they
are well blended. roll dough into small to medium balls and place
on cookie sheet. Flatten dough with fork, and bake at 325 F for
8 to 10 minutes.
Note:
I have made the recipe and refrigerated dough during the holidays.
Great for those of us who like hot cookies and milk. I also have
cut recipe in half and that works well for me. This recipe is quite
old and given to me by an aunt of 76 years old. When she said by
hand after working in some of the dry ingredients she means BY
HAND, said get right in there and toss the dough around blending it
well.
