When my two daughters were young, their great-grandma made them cookies with oats and coconut. Thankfully, she shared the recipe.-Debra Dorn, Homosassa, Florida

Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat shortening and sugars until blended. Beat in eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into sugar mixture. Stir in oats and coconut.
- Divide dough into four portions. On a lightly floured surface, shape each into a 6-in. long roll. Wrap in plastic wrap; freeze 2 hours or until firm.
- Preheat oven to 350°. Unwrap and cut dough crosswise into 1/2-in. slices, reshaping as needed. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on pans 5 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool.
- Freeze option: Place wrapped logs in resealable plastic freezer bag; return to freezer. To use, unwrap frozen logs and cut into slices. If necessary, let dough stand a few minutes at room temperature before cutting. Prepare and bake as directed.
- Yield: about 4 dozen.
