1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2-1/4 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup chopped nuts (I left these out because I’m not a nuts-in-my-cookies lover)
72 milk chocolate kisses

1. Preheat oven to 375F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, cream the butter, shortening and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in oats and nuts.
4. Roll into 1-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate kiss in the center of each cookie. Remove to wire racks.

Makes about 6 dozen cookies.
