Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I've been in a cookie baking mood lately. This is the second batch already this week! This recipe has become a favorite since I found it on All Recipes a few years ago.

 I like the way it bakes up....nice an chewy in the middle and full of chocolate, pecans, and coconut in every bite.

They store well and stay nice and soft in the middle for a long time. The recipe makes a nice size batch, and also freezes well.

I like to stick them in our lunches for work...a nice treat to look forward to all morning!
