We love baking cookies in our home, like A LOT!! The kids love helping and we all love eating!! One of our all-time favorites is this Oatmeal Coconut Cookies recipe (they're different from our Classic Oatmeal Cookies recipe, which we love too). I will admit that I was a little hesitant to try them at first because they seemed so plain, but oh mama, they were good!! I may even add some more oatmeal and coconut so that the cookie has more substance.
