    • 🍯 1 cup packed brown sugar
    • 🥚 2 large eggs
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🍞 2 cups all-purpose flour

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

2

Cream shortening and sugars in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.

3

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually stir into creamed mixture until combined. Stir in oats, coconut, pecans, and gumdrops. Roll dough into walnut-size balls and place 2 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheets. Use a fork dipped in flour to gently flatten cookies.

4

Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
