Oatmeal Date Coconut drop cookies image

I've had this old recipe for a long time, and am not sure of it's origin. However, the cookies are delish and are always a hit when I bring them to a party, or to share at work.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 c shortening
2 c brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp warm water
3 eggs, well beaten
1 c coconut
1 c old fashioned oatmeal
1 c dates
1/2 c pecans, choped
2-1/2 c flour

Steps:

  • 1. Dissolve baking soda in warm water.
  • 2. Combine eggs with the baking soda water.
  • 3. Mix all other ingredients on low speed of your mixer and be sure to distribute the shortening; Add the water/egg mixture and mix until all is combined.
  • 4. Drop by using a cookie scoop, or by rounded teaspoons onto baking sheet covered with parchment paper.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll probably reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I didn't have any dates, so I used raisins instead. They turned out great!

These cookies were a little too dry for my taste. I think I'll add more butter next time.
