Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups flaked coconut
- 3 cups large flake oats
- 1 1/2 cups raisins or chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer, cream together your butter and sugars until the mixture is light-colored.
- Add in your eggs one at a time, beating until fully incorporated.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture, adding slowly until it's completely incorporated into the butter mixture.
- Add in your coconut and oatmeal, mixing slowly on the lowest setting of your mixer or by hand.
- Choose whether you are going to add chocolate or raisins, and then mix them in until evenly mixed throughout the dough.
- Drop by rounded tablespoonful onto a greased or parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are set and the bottoms are browned. These are best when slightly underbaked to retain their chewiness.
- Store in a closed container at room temperature for 4-5 days or freeze in a freezer safe container or bag for up to 3 months.

Notes
- You can split the dough in half and do half chocolate chips and half raisin if wanted.
- I prefer to let the coconut, oatmeal, and raisins be the flavors of the cookie, but you can add 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 1 teaspoon vanilla if you prefer.
- there is a lot of sugar in this recipe, so use unsweetened medium flaked coconut if you want to cut the sweetness
