INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 cups oatmeal.

- 2/3 cup light brown sugar.
- 2/3 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 tsp baking soda.
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 2 eggs
METHOD
→ Preheat oven to 350 degrees
→ Mix the peanut butter and butter in a large bowl with a big spoon or spatula (electric mixer not necessary).
→ Add the sugars, salt, baking soda and powder, mixing well.
→ Then add the eggs, oats, chocolate chips and schredded coconut, thoroughly mixing.
→ Using a a small ice creme scoop, create individual rounds of dough and place them on either a silicon baking mat or parchment paper over a baking tin.
→ With your finger, gently press down on each round to flatten it a bit..
→ Bake for 12-14 minutes or until LIGHT golden brown.
