My mother-in-law gave me this recipe when I was dating her son. That was a LONG time ago! ha
Sometimes I add about a cup and a half of chocolate chips and a cup of pecans to this recipe. This is a big request from the family.

How to Make Cowboy Oatmeal Cookies
- Mix shortening, sugars,then eggs.
- Mix in separate bowl flour, oats, baking soda,and salt.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the sugar mixture mixing as you add. Then add vanilla and coconut. (Two cups of coconut may be too much for your taste, but a little or a lot it goes GREAT in here!)
- Drop heaping tablespoons of dough (or use cookie scoop) onto cookie sheet. I make them large size. Bake at 375* for 10 mins.
