- 2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal (uncooked)
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups cake flour

Directions
1
Cream shortening and white sugar together.2
Add eggs and remaining ingredients.3
This will be real thick and I had to use my hands to mix it well.4
Take about a heaping tablespoon (or more if you want larger cookies) and roll into a ball in place on cookie sheeet.5
Bake at 350 degrees until brown.6
Let cool slightly before removing from cookie sheet.7
You can also add coconut or chocolate chips if desired.8
Personally, I like them without them.

Great cookies! I used all purpose flour, butter, and omitted the nuts. I baked them for 10 minutes and they were golden and delicious. My friends loved 'em!

These cookies are much better and easier to handle than my other recipe for Ranger cookies. I substituted coconut for the pecans and added a cup of chocolate chips. I also used two cups all-purpose flour. The dough handled very well, but became dry and crumbly near the bottom of the bowl. I think next time I make these, I'll use butter for half, or maybe all, of the shortning, or maybe cut the regular flour back to 1 3/4 cups. The baking time for me was about 12 minutes. This is definitely a keeper!
