In mixer, cream crisco and sugar. Add eggs one at a time. Add flour, oatmeal, and remaining ingredients. Mix together to form cookie dough.
Grease cookie sheet with cooking spray.
Place 1 ounce scoops, of cookie dough, 3 per row, 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Be sure to keep them the same size so they cook evenly.
