Gumdrop Oatmeal Cookies

"Mom used to make these all year round. She didn't use the black ones, instead gave them to us kids to munch on while we watched her whip the cookies up. No coconut in mom's recipe. I supose you could add a cup or so if you'd like. As she chopped the gum drops she tossed them in sugar to keep them from getting all stuck together."
