Dishpan Cookies

These are a favorite in my family. I got the recipe from one of Dad's aunts who makes the dough, freezes it, then can have fresh cookies at a moment's notice. They are called Dishpan cookies because the entire recipe makes so much dough you have to have a huge bowl (or dishpan) to make these. I have cut the recipe in half because I don't want to stand in the kitchen baking cookies for DAYS.

2 c brown sugar
2 c white sugar
1 c oil or butter
4 eggs
2 t vanilla
4 c SR flour
1 c coconut
1 cup quick oats
1 c chopped pecans
1 bag chocolate chips

Cream together butter and sugars, add eggs and mix well. Add remaining ingredients, mixing well after each addition. Drop by spoonfuls on a greased cookie sheet, bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. YUM!
