Do you remember the Quaker Oats cookie recipe from back in 1976-1979. They always came out chewie that first day and if any were left over the net day they were crunchie. It was a win win situtation. But can not get them to come out that way now. Now they are cakey.

I have an old tin box with the 'Robin Hood' brands recipe for Oatmeal-Raisin cookies on it.
This recipe is my 'go-to' one for oatmeal cookies! I have had several people request it after they taste one of these.

I have the recipe that my mom used to use from the box. It is
Oatmeal Cookies
3/4 cup vegetable shortening (butter flavored)
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups Oats (Old Fashion), uncooked
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Beat together shortening, sugars, egg, water, and vanilla until creamy.
Add combined remaining ingredients; mix well.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet.
Bake in preheated moderate oven (350 degrees) for 12 to 15 minutes.
For a variety, add chopped nuts, raisins, chocolate chips.
I always put in tons of raisins.
Hope you enjoy!!!!!
