- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture.
Stir in oats, chocolate chips, nuts, and coconut until evenly combined.
Scoop dough onto baking sheet (about 2 tablespoons per cookie).
Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are slightly soft.
Let cool on the pan for a few minutes before transferring.
Tips for Perfect Cookies
- Don’t overbake—centers should stay soft for that chewy texture.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes if you want thicker cookies.
- Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top for a gourmet touch.
