• 1  teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3  cups  regular rolled oats

1. Mix butter and brown sugar until thoroughly blended. Add eggs and vanilla, beat well. In another bowl, combine oats, flour, salt, and baking powder. Blend oat mixture with butter mixture. Stir in walnuts, coconut, and raisins.
2. Pack cookie dough into an ice cream scoop (4 oz size) or 1/2 cup measuring cup. Scrape dough level with rim and empty onto lightly oiled baking sheets, spacing dough about 3 inches apart.
