Great!!! 1/2 cup margarine in place of shortening as that is what I had with 1 cup of chocolate chips instead of 2 cups. Used 2 tsp per cookie yielded 27 cookies

I too added a tsp. of vanilla and then used 2 sticks (1 cup) butter and 1 cup shortening (I doubled the recipe). I froze half of the batter, but the cookies I did bake turned out great. Note: I did not use a greased baking sheet, instead I used a silpat and they turned out great!

Well, I did like the taste and I thought they were really good. I did change things like adding 2 teaspoons of vanilla and 2 sticks of butter (1 cup) instead of shortening. I also cut down on the ammount of chocolate chips. Believe meh I llllooovvee chocolate, but then again what girl doesnt right? Well I poured in one cup and it looked like enough so I didnt put in a second cup, plus I was out of that bag and didn't want to open a new one. When I make cookies I chill the dough and then bake them and the stay thick and fluffy but these sank down and were thin. I love the taste and texture but wish they had stayed fluffy. Thanks :]

These were pretty good, but not a 5. I did what others suggested, adding vanilla and I also used 1/2 marg and 1/2 shortning, because I didn't have enough shortning. They were VERY sweet. Sweeter than I generally like. And I'm not so sure about the texture. They also really stick to the pan, even my Pampered Chef that nothing sticks to! I'm not sure what I'd do different, but they need tweeking.

Make them "gluten free" and use "Spelt Flour" instead of all-purpose. Still SOOO yummy!!!! I also used 1 tsp of vanilla, like others suggested. Great recipe!

They turned out great.. just soft and chewy enough, not hard as a rock.. Didn't have quite enough brown sugar, so added little extra regular sugar.. added some vanilla, baked at 350 for about 14 minutes.

They came out dry for me. I thought that 2 cups of oats looked like too much and it was. Use less oats. 2 cups of chips was too much also. I used Splenda for the sugars, maybe that made the difference? The mixture was dry and wouldn't mix together completely with the oats and chips.

I followed the recipe almost exactly - only added a little vanilla (which I add to most baked goods). The texture was perfect - nice and fat and puffy - chewy in the middle and crispy on the edges. I think the Crisco is what helps them puff so much. They are VERY chocolaty - weight conscious could easily reduce chips to save calories and still have a very chocolaty treat! I may try the butter flavor Crisco next time to get the flavor but keep the wonderful texture. I noticed other reviews cut the amount of salt - these are a *little* on the salty side but I LOVE salty/sweet combo. Makes a LOT of good-sized cookies!

I used this recipe as a jumping off point to make a much healthier cookie, but I was interested in the proportions of ingredients mostly. This turned out very well. (If anyone is interested, I used spelt instead of white flour, 3/4 cup coconut oil instead of the shortening, 1/2 cup organic brown sugar and 1/4 cup agave nectar instead of the refined sugars, only 3/4 cup chocolate chips, and I added a bit of vanilla). They were delicious. By the way, refrigerating them for a couple hours before baking really helped the texture. NOTE: If you get flat, burned cookies, your dough was too soft!! Add a little more flour or refrigerate the dough for a little while first. It isn't the recipe's fault, you just didn't bake them right.

These were awesome after changing it up some. I used 1/2 cup of shortening and 1/2 cup of butter, 1/2 tbl of vanilla, a dash of nutmeg, cinnamon, 1/2 cup of pecans and 1 cup of raisins. These are thick and very chewy, loved it!

These are great cookies. I followed the recipe, except for adding some coconut in place of chocolate chips and adding a teaspoon or so of vanilla. They came out quite thin and dark, but the texture was really good. They almost reminded me of lattice cookies. I found 15 min to be a little too long, although they weren't burnt. I will definitely be making these again.

amazing! I didn't have any shortening, so instead I used half a cup of butter and a quarter cup of vegetable oil, and I also used 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour and 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour, 2 1/2 cups of oats, and 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips. I added about a teaspoon of both vanilla and cinnamon as well just to give it a bit more flavor. Really good cookie and family loved it!
