Directions

Combine flour, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.

Set aside.

With an electric mixer beat together the shortening, sugars and vanilla in a large bowl until creamy.

Add eggs, beating until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in flour mixture and oats.

Stir in chocolate chips.

Drop batter by well-rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden.

Let cool on sheets for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
