From: Misty Lindsey
1 cup shortening (I use butter flavored Crisco)
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
Cream these really well. I let my mixer beat them on med-high for probably close to 10 minutes. You want it to get really light in color and fluffy.
2 eggs
1/2 Tbls water
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
2 cup flour
1 cup oatmeal (optional)
Chocolate chips to taste and nuts if desired
Bake at 375 for about 12 minutes. Don't let them get brown. Allow to cool on the sheet. you can also freeze the dough balls to bake later.

Try using Almond extract instead of the vanilla. It gives the cookies a great new flavor!
