Total Time: 45 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, soft
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
• 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt, scant
• 1 cup quick-cooking oats
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup walnuts
• 1/2 cup unsweetened flaked coconut

Recipe

• 1 heat oven to 365 degrees, fahrenheit.
• 2 cream together the sugars with the softened butter and shortening.
• 3 beat in the eggs and extracts.
• 4 stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt. add to the batter.
• 5 add the remaining ingredients and stir until mixed, careful not to over mix.
• 6 let the batter rest 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
• 7 scoop heaping soup-spoon sized balls of batter and slightly flatten on a cookie sheet. you should fit 10-12 on a standard size cookie sheet.
• 8 bake 9-12 minutes. do not over bake! they will keep cooking when they come out of the oven, because they are so dense. my oven cooks unevenly, so i always rotate the cookie sheets half way through.
• 9 let rest for 2-3 minutes on the cookie sheet and then cool on a wire rack.
• 10 store in an airtight container (if they last!).
