Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

Make your Good Friday even better with these tasty cookies from my grandma’s recipe collection.  And…chocolate chip cookie dough ain’t got nothing on this dough, it is a wonder I get any cookies made at all!

Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

1/2c melted butter
1/2c melted shortening
1c brown sugar
1c white sugar
2 eggs-beaten
1tsp vanilla
1tsp baking soda
1tsp salt
1c flour
7oz. coconut flakes (1 small bag)
4c quick cook oats

Make sure the butter and shortening is melted- not soft-melted into liquid.  Mix all ingredients together until combined.  Form dough into 1inch balls and place on baking sheet.  Bake for 10-12min at 350.  This recipe makes around 3-4doz cookies- if you don’t eat all the dough!  Enjoy!
