Ingredients:
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 4 cups sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups oats
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions:
-
Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (165°C) and preparing your ungreased cookie sheets.
-
In a very large bowl or dishpan, combine the oil and brown sugar, ensuring they are thoroughly mixed.
-
Gradually add in the remaining ingredients in the order specified, mixing well after each addition to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated into the dough.
-
Using a spoon, drop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, making sure to leave enough space between each cookie as they will spread slightly during baking. You may want to flatten them slightly with the back of the spoon.
-
Place the cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges.
-
Once baked to perfection, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the cookie sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
