directions

  • With an electric mixer, whip up the margarine and sugar in a large mixing bowl until fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla and salt and beat well.
  • Blend the baking soda and baking powder into the flour, either directly in the measuring cup or in a large bowl, and then tap this mixture into the creamed ingredients, mixing slowly. Using a sturdy spoon, mix the rest by hand.
  • Add oats and stir until the dough comes together. Stir in chocolate chips, coconut and nuts.
  • Line a cookie sheet with baking parchment and scoop the dough with a 2-ounce ice cream scoop. Press the top of the cookie dough mound down slightly.
  • Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 7-12 minutes, until lightly golden in color with tiny cracks on top of the cookies.

  1. These are the best cookies ever! Margie used to sell them at Squaw Valley in the 1980's

OK lets see...My name is Diane and I'm married to a wonderful guy -- going on 20 years. We have 2 kids -- 1 daughter and 1 son a 70lb german shepard, a fat cat and a very snobby cat! I work a couple of days a week in the Loop and the rest of my time is spent sitting at the kids sporting events. I love to try new recipes. Luckily, hubby will try just about anything. The kids aren't so eager about that, but are generally very good sports about it!
