OATMEAL COOKIES

I found a great recipe for Oatmeal cookies. They are crisp on the edges and chewy in the middle...thanks to an addition I came up with: coconut

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 cups quick cooking oats

* you can add 1 cup coconut if desired

Bake 350 10-12 minutes on parchment paper.

I leave out the cinnamon, and the original recipe only called for 2 eggs, but I have been adding an extra egg to give the cookies a bit more body. I also add another 1/4 cup or so of flour.
