Good & Chewy Cookies

This recipe was my Nana's and my Mom says she often came home from school to these freshly baked cookies. My family loves them and I hope yours will too!

1 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tablespoons milk
1 cup shredded coconut
1 1/2 cups oatmeal
1 1/2 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Cream together shortening and sugars. Add eggs. Mix together flour, baking soda and power and salt, then incorporate into sugar mixture. Beat in vanilla, milk, coconut and oatmeal, then stir in Rice Krispies with a wooden spoon. Drop with a cookie scoop onto cookie sheet and bake for 8-9 minutes, or until just barely beginning to brown. Makes 3 dozen cookies.
