Ingredients:
- 1 cup shortening
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 cup boiling water
- 3 cups oatmeal
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures your cookies bake evenly and achieve that perfect, golden-brown hue.
-
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly blend the shortening, brown sugar, baking soda, and flour. This mixture should be smooth and well incorporated.
-
Add Liquid and Oats: Gradually stir in the boiling water until fully combined, followed by the oatmeal. The boiling water helps to soften the oats and blend the ingredients seamlessly.
-
Incorporate Nuts and Chips: Gently fold in the chopped pecans and chocolate chips. These additions will provide delightful texture and bursts of flavor in every bite.
-
Drop Dough: Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet. Space them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Keep a close eye on them as baking times may vary depending on your oven. The cookies should be golden around the edges and set in the center.
-
Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy these homemade treats with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
