Target recipe: preheat oven to 350 and lightly grease cookie sheet mix shortening, brown and white sugars add eggs, vanilla, salt, soda and water and mix well depending on my mood i add cinnamon here, about 1-2 tsp. mix in flour. add oats and mix some more bake at 350 for 12 mins (check at 10) and spray pan between batches to prevent sticking. you can reduce the amount of vanilla depending on your taste, i tend to like a little more. add in chocolate chips for really yummy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and/or nuts. these are thin enough that adding in whatever sound good to you at the moment works well.
