Bruce's favorite: Mrs. Dudley's Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

Mix together:
1 cup melted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar

Add:
2 beaten eggs
1 cup coconut
1 teaspoon vanilla

Sift together:
1 cup pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix all ingredients together thoroughly then add 4 cups rolled oats (one cup at a time is best) and mix (this gets pretty thick). Shape into small pats (or big ones) on cookie sheet then flatten slightly with spatula.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes or until done.
