Instructions: Put butter and oats in a mixing bowl. Pour in boiling water and let stand for 1 minute. Mix well. Beat in sugars, then eggs.

In another bowl, combine flour, soda, salt and cocoa and whisk well. Add to batter in two batches, mixing well after each addition. Stir in half the chocolate chips and the walnuts.

Pour batter into a greased and floured, 9-by-13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle remaining chips on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes.
