Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325. Cream sugar, shortening and eggs until light & fluffy. Sift 2 cups flour with soda and salt. Blend into creamed mixture.
- 2. *Dice orange slice candy with kitchen shears (see Cindy's tips below). Mix with 1/2 cup flour and add candy mixture to first mixture.
- 3. Stir in coconut, nuts and oats. Roll into 1" balls (see Cindy's tips below). Place on a greased cookie sheet and press with a fork. Bake at 325 for 10-12 minutes.
- 4. *Note: When dicing candy, dip kitchen shears in powdered sugar frequently...see Cindy's tips below.
- 5. Tips: Here are some tips from our fellow member, Cindy Strawser...she cut up Cherry and Orange slices and to the coconut, oats and nuts she added chocolate chips. Also, instead of having to keep dipping the shears into the powdered sugar...she cut the candies down the middle and dipped them in the powdered sugar and they sliced up great. No sticky shears to mess with. She also did not roll each cookie into a ball but dropped them from the spoon and mashed them down a bit with her fingers. She stated that this made them a little on the thick side and not flat..but NOT too thick. She said she ended up with approximately 3 1/2 dozen cookies. Thanks for the tips, Cindy!:)

Tips:
- Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients mix together more easily and result in a smoother batter.
- Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use bottled orange juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown. If you bake them too long, they will be dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before you frost them. This will help the frosting set properly.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
