Directions:
Preheat oven to 325
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla, and then beat in the vegetable oil until batter is smooth.
Stir in the oats, cornflakes, coconut, and nuts.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Then stir into cookie dough. Mix well.
Form the dough into balls the size of walnuts.
Place cookies 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Flatten each cookie slightly with a fork dipped in water.
Bake for 12 minutes, until lightly browned.
Allow the cookies to cool a few minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Note: If you don't have a need for perfectly circular cookies, then just drop the batter by spoonful, 1 inch apart, on cookie sheets.
