Ingredients:  
1 large egg
½ c. unsalted butter (1 stick)
½ c. light brown sugar, packed
¼ c. granulated sugar
1 Tbs. vanilla extract
1 c. old-fashioned whole rolled oats (not instant or quick cook)
1 c. all-purpose flour (have used Whole wheat successfully)
½ c. sweetened shredded coconut
½ c. chopped walnuts (pecans may be substituted, or nuts may be omitted)
½ tsp. baking soda
¼ tsp. salt, or to taste
1 heaping cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Directions:
To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large mixing bowl and electric mixer) combine the egg, butter, sugars, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until creamed and well combined, about 4 minutes.
Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the oats, flour, coconut, walnuts, baking soda, salt to taste, and beat on low speed until just combined, about 1 minute.
Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the chocolate chips, and beat on low speed until just combined, about 30 seconds.
Using a large cookie scoop, ¼ cup measure, or your hands, form approximately 12 equal-sized mounds of dough, roll into balls, and flatten slightly.
Place mounds on a large plate or tray, cover with plasticwrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 5 days. Do not bake with unchilled dough because cookies will bake thinner, flatter, and be more prone to spreading. (If I'm in a hurry I'll pop them in the freezer for at least 20 minutes.)
Preheat oven to 350º, line a baking sheet with a Silpat or spray with cooking spray. Place dough mounds on baking sheet, spaced at least 2 inches apart (I bake 8 cookies per sheet) and bake for about 11 to 13 minutes (for super soft cookies, longer for more well-done cookies), or until edges have set and tops are just set, even if slightly undercooked, pale, and glossy in the center; don’t overbake. Cookies firm up as they cool. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for about 10 minutes before serving. I let them cool on the baking sheet and don’t use a rack.
Cookies will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 6 months. Alternatively, unbaked cookie dough can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months, so consider baking only as many cookies as desired and save the remaining dough to be baked in the future when desired.
