Now here's my recipe for something called Cowboy Cookies:

Cowboy Cookies

Cream together 1 cup Crisco and 2/3 of a cup each of granulated sugar and brown sugar.

Add 2 eggs (I used large ones) and 2 teaspoons vanilla. Real vanilla. I buy mine in Mexico.

Stir in 2 cups of unbleached white flour. Also add 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, and one teaspoon baking soda

Add one 12 ounce package of chocolate chips, 2 cups uncooked oats – the real thing, NOT the instant ones. Go ahead and buy a box of Quaker Oats. You won’t regret it. Now toss in 1 cup walnuts chopped. Mix well, which will give your arm a workout as this becomes a pretty dense dough. It might even be a bit crumbly, which is just fine.

Shape into cookie sized lumps – use your hands, I’m sure you already washed them thoroughly – on to a lightly greased cookie sheet. If you have the totally flat cookie sheets, go out and buy the regular ones with the low sides. Don’t buy the Teflon coated ones either, because nothing browns properly in them. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Let them cool for about five minutes on the baking sheet before putting them on a rack to completely cool. If you try to transfer them too soon they’ll fall apart.

These also freeze very well, and depending on how strong your teeth are, or your tolerance for very cold things, they are really good eaten just out of the freezer. Honest.
