Even though the ingredient list may seem about as long as a grocery shopping list, they're simple to make. In fact, these cookies are so basic you can mix everything by hand; this helps to avoid overbeating, which may toughen the dough.

    As one other reviewer mentioned, the cookies are very crumbly. I reduced the oatmeal to 1.5 cups, replaced the coconut with pretzel bits and used a mix of chocolate and peanut butter morsels. I also added dried chopped cherries. They were delicious, but next time I will increase the butter by half a cup, and reduce the oats as well. Very delicious with the pretzels if you like salty/sweet combinations!

    The recipe won't print. When I click on print, a blank page comes up.

    These truly are moist and delicious oatmeal cookies. I did add fresh grated nutmeg to the recipe, that is what I do to almost all my oatmeal cookies. To me, it adds a nice hint of flavor. Thanks for the recipes.

    These cookies are fantastic for making with kids and sharing with others. It makes an enormous batch of cookies and they are delicious. We saved money on the ingredients by purchasing them at our local natural grocery (bulk bins) and substituted 1 C of raw unsalted pistachios for the walnuts because of an allergy. My children were in charge of putting all the dry stuff together and putting the dough on the tray and they had so much fun.

    These cookies are great. However, they do have a taste and texture similar to MS's Soft

    These are fantastic! Learned to bake them back in 1997 for Xmas after watching MSLO. I split the chips into 1 C semi-sweet and 1C Butterscotch. Yummy and not as crunchy as heath bits. Sometimes I omit the coconut. Very versatile recipe, so many variations possible according to taste.

    These are good. Not too sweet. I omitted the raisins. Only comment - maybe less oats, like 1.5 cups instead. The batter was a little crumbly for me, but i would definitely make these again.
