1/2 cup butter, softened1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
Cream butter, shortening and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in oats, coconut and walnuts.
Divide dough in half. Shape each into a 10-in. long roll. Wrap in plastic; refrigerate overnight.
Preheat oven to 375°. Unwrap and cut dough crosswise into 1/2-in. slices. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake until edges begin to brown, 8-10 minutes. Cool 2 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
