    Makes about 3 1/2 dozen

Ingredients

10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
6 tablespoons solid vegetable shortening
1 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (about 9 ounces)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup raisins
Nonstick vegetable oil spray

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°. Using electric mixer, beat butter, shortening, both sugars, eggs and vanilla in large bowl until well blended. Sift in flour, baking soda and salt; beat to blend. Mix in oats, chocolate chips, nuts and raisins.

    Step 2

    Spray baking sheets with nonstick spray. For each cookie, drop 1 rounded tablespoonful of dough onto sheet, spacing 1 inch apart (do not flatten dough). Bake cookies until golden but still slightly soft to touch, about 15 minutes. Cool cookies on sheets. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.)
