Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

reviews & comments
The recipe neglects to say when to add the oatmeal and the coconut. We went ahead and added it with the nuts so as to fold in, but clarity would be helpful. We'll let you know how they come out. They are in the oven!!!
