Gumdrops are kid-pleasing, but an equal amount of chopped walnut halves, pecans or slivered almonds yields a cookie that's just as memorable but not as sweet.
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups large-flake rolled oats
- 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup cubed gumdrops
