Kate's Crispy Cookies (Oatmeal)

Kate's mission was to make a crispy oatmeal cookie instead of a chewy. This recipe is crispy, would hold up for dunking and is really one of the best crispy oatmeal cookies I've had. Don't use quick oats, use old fashioned oatmeal, the big flakes. Experiment...use your imagination....


1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking salt
1/2 tsp. salt (omit if using salted butter)
2 cups oatmeal
3/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
raisins

Mix it all together, drop onto baking sheet and bake at 350/375.
