    Grandma's Cocoa Oatmeal Cookies aka: Brown Bombers!

    My 7 year old son has been asking me for a couple weeks now to make his favorite cookies. I really didn't know what his favorite cookie was, so I asked. He surprised me when he said that he loved Grandma's (my mom's) Brown Bombers. That is the affectionately given nickname for her Cocoa Oatmeal Cookies. I grew up on these and for some reason don't make them very often!

    Well, I finally got around to making Brown Bombers for my son. When I asked him if they tasted like Grand mom's, he said very matter of factly: No.

    Darn! Well, you can't replace Grandma's cookies! They must add a secret Grandma ingredient that I don't know about yet! :)

    Sift together first 5 ingredients. Combine the egg, milk and vanilla and add cooled shortening and butter. Mix thoroughly with dry ingredients. Stir in rolled oatmeal. Drop by spoonfuls onto parchment paper or sprayed cookie sheets.

    Bake at 350 for 8 min.
