Great cookie recipe makes dozens and keeps well. Great for making Christmas platters. I like them without coconut. I add extra pecans. It's faster cookie making if you just make small balls with your hands

I have made them with just butter and just Crisco and also tried a combination of Crisco and butter. Crisco is the winner. I had also added white chocolate chips, raisins, Heath Bar bits,a couple tablespoon peanut butter. Made 12 doz and gave them out to the office. Raves and when are you going to make them again. Crisco is the way to go.
