Drain any liquid left on prunes into a 1/4 measuring cup. (I use a total of 1/4 cup liquid.) Cream shortening and sugars by hand, adding vanilla. Beat eggs with mixer on low speed into shortening and sugar until nicely creamed. Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir into creamed mixture along with the prune liquid. Add rolled oats, prunes and chopped nuts. Drop by soup sized spoonfuls on ungreased (or very lightly grease) cookie sheet.
