Cowboy Cookies

I'm finally caught up to where I am putting these on facebook but feel this may be a better way to share. We'll try both for awhile and see how it goes. Let me know what ya think.
I was going to make these with the little feller who comes for day care but his nap cut into our baking time today so I promised we'd make "tookies" again next week. I was even gonna take a picture of him helping me..so shoot...anyway...here's the recipe. Try them this weekend.
c butter or margarine


1 tsp soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 c sugar...

1 c brown sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

2 c oatmeal

6 oz chocolate chips *I use a whole bag

1 c raisins

1 c coconut

2 c flour

nuts if desired

mix altogether..The heck with cream this, sift this..do that..I tend to throw everything but the flour, choc. chips, raisins and coconut in a big bowl...Mix. Now I add the flour and the "stir ins" (chips, raisins and coconut).

bake at 350 deg. How long you ask? I don't know..til you smell them done (that's how I do it really, that's true!).  We tend to like our cookies a little "underdone". Maybe I'll time them sometime and let you know, if it really bugs ya not to be able to set a timer :).
