Kevin's Favorite Oatmeal (Chocolate Chip or Raisin) Cookies

1 3/4 c. flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c. packed brown sugar
1 c. shortening/butter
3/4 c. sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
2 TB milk
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 c. oatmeal
2 c. chocolate chips or raisins
1 c. chopped nuts (optional)

Cream together brown sugar, shortening, sugar, and cinnamon. Beat in eggs, milk, and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to other mixture. Stir in oatmeal, chocolate chips or raisins, and nuts if desired. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet at 350 for 9-10 minutes (chewy) or 12-13 minutes (crispy). Note: I made them with craisins instead of raisins and no nuts. Amazing recipe!!
