• In separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, blending thoroughly.
• Add oats, chocolate chips, and nuts; mix well.
• Shape each cookie by spooning dough into a 1/2-cup measure, level off, and turn out onto a greased baking sheet. Space cookies a minimum of 6 inches apart and 2 1/2 from edge of baking sheet.
• Lightly grease the bottom of a pie pan, dip in granulated sugar, and use to flatten each cookie into a 5 1/2-inch circle. To even each cookie's thickness, press it lightly with your finger, if necessary.
• Bake in a 350 degree farenheit oven for about 15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Place on baking sheets and allow to cool for 5 minutes; transfer to racks to cool completely.
• Store in airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Beat butter, brown sugar and sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth.
• Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder salt and oatmeal into a small bowl. Add to creamed mixture and mix until well combined. Sti r in chocolates chips, grated chocolate and nuts.
• Drop by the Tablespoon onto baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake 8-10 minutes until golden brown around the edges. I like to make smaller cookies using my small scoop so I am not really sure how many cookies it makes as written.

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 350.
• Beat butter, sugars, vanill and eggs until they are very, creamy and fluffy.
• Add remaining ingredients slowly, mixing well after each addition.
• Bake on ungreased cooky sheets for 8-10 minutes. Depending on how you like them, I take them out before they look done, they will puff in the oven but as they cool they flatten and will be more done. Cool slightly on the pan before moving to a wire rack. (2-3 minutes usually does it, too soon and they fall apart too long they cet stuck to the pan).
• Don't put them too close together, as thick as the batter is, they still spread out alot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In medium bowl sift together flour and baking soda.
• Cream together butter, oil, and sugar.
• Add eggs and vanilla until combined.
• Gradually add flour mixture to wet mixture.
• Stir in chocolate chips.
• At this point, you can either separate recipe into 3rd's and freeze some of the dough in rolls for later use or cook immediately drop by spoonful (i make them big) on parchment lined baking sheets and slightly flatten with a spoon.
• Bake for 7-10 minutes or until lightly golden.
• Allow to cool.
• To use frozen rolls, allow to thaw in refrigerator, slice and follow normal directions.

Steps:

• Preheat Oven to 325°F.
• In a VERY large mixing bowl or largest bowl of your Stand Mixer, add brown sugar, white sugar, and shortening. Cream together very well.
• In another large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set Aside.
• Add flour mixture and eggs alternately to the creamed mixture, mix well, scraping down sides of bowl as needed.
• Dissolve baking soda in the 4 tbs of HOT water. Add baking soda mixture and vanilla to dough and mix well.
• Stir in nuts and chocolate chunks.
• Drop by heaping tablespoonful onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 325° for 15-17 minutes. I get 12 cookies to a standard sized cookie sheet.
• VARIATIONS/TIPS:.
• Nuts: Can use walnuts, pecans, macadamia nuts, etc. so long as you have a total of 2 lbs. I measure each type of nut used into it's own bowl, see reason below.
• Chocolate Chunks: I seldom use just the chocolate chunks called for in the original recipe. Instead I use a combination of 3 lbs of a variety of baking pieces, and put in separate bowls. Try chocolate chunks, semisweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, mini M&M's, vanilla baking chips, chocolate/caramel swirled chips, etc. so long as you have a total of about 3 lbs (about 4 - 12 ounce packages) I have already used a little less than 3 lbs when I just didn't have enough available.
• FUN TIP:.
• Before adding the nuts and chocolate to your dough, divide the dough into 2 bowls. Since you have measured out the nuts and chocolate (or variety of baking pieces)into separate bowls, you can now create a variety of cookie dough flavors. Add whatever combination you would like so long as you add approximately equal amounts to each bowl.
• FOR EXAMPLE: Divide cookie dough into 2 bowls. To first bowl add 1 pound chopped pecans, 1 pound chocolate chunks, and 1/2 pound butterscotch chips. To second bowl add 1 pound chopped walnuts, 1 pound caramel/chocolate swirled chips, and 1/2 pound vanilla baking chips. The possibilities are endless. Have fun with this!
• When I freeze the dough, I do use my food saver machine. I fill the food saver bag with desired amount of dough and flatten out slightly before vacuum sealing. This way the dough lays flat in the freezer to save space, and thaws more quickly. I take the dough out of the freezer and put in the fridge the day before I plan on baking.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture and mix well. Fold in the nuts and chips. , Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
