Recipe posted in a thread by Cindy Leigh on December 12, 2012

1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter or butter flavor crisco
3 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans
1 tsp butter flavor extract
3 cups oatmeal, milled
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 bag cinnamon chips
1/2 cup Skor or Heath bar baking pieces

Mill the dry oatmeal in a food process or until the flakes are 1/2 original size. Add dry ingredients except sugars. Set aside.

Cream butter, sugars, eggs, and extracts. Combine flour mixture with butter mixture. Add nuts, chips, and Skor pieces.

Form into 1-inch balls and flatten slightly.

Bake at 350 for ~14 minutes. Cool slightly. Carefully remove to a wire rack.

Can roll dough into logs and freeze for later baking.

This is a crispy, not chewy, cookie.
If dough is too dry, add 1-2 tbsp water.
