Chewy Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3/4 c. shortening
1 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. pineapple juice
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. salt
3 c. oatmeal (uncooked)
1/2 c. white sugar
1 egg
1/2 c. crushed pineapple
1 c. flour
1/2 tsp. soda

Preparation

Cream shortening and sugars.
Add egg, vanilla and juice; mix thoroughly.
Sift flour, salt and soda; stir into mixture.
Mix crushed pineapple into mixture, then mix in the oatmeal.
Let dough stand 30 minutes before dropping by teaspoonfuls on well-greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 350\u00b0 for 12 minutes.
Makes about 5 dozen; standing time allows the oatmeal to absorb the juice.
