Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookie

I made these last Saturday and they were a huge hit!

1 c. butter
1 c. sugar
1 c. brown sugar
1 T. water
1 t. vanilla
2 eggs

Mix ingredients together.

When smooth, add:
1 2/3 c. flour
1 t. baking soda
1 t. salt

Add 1 c. coconut (optional), 3 c. instant oatmeal and 1 pkg (12 oz) chocolate chips. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Makes 4 1/2-5 dozen.
