Old Fashioned Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 c. butter (2 sticks), softened
1 1/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c. granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 Tbsp. milk
2 tsp. vanilla
1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda (I dissolve this in 2 tsp. hot water)
2 1/2 c. oats (uncooked)
1 1/2 c. coarsely chopped pecans
3/4 c. Angel Flake coconut

Preparation

Heat oven to 375\u00b0.
Beat butter and sugars until creamy.
Add eggs, milk and vanilla; beat well.
Add flour and baking soda; mix well.
Stir in oats, nuts and coconut.
(I bake the first half of the cookie dough without coconut and then add the coconut to the second half.)
