This is a great batch of cookies to make for school bazaars or for your own home. Absolutely delicious, my kids love them. But this does make a large batch. I usually do half now and it makes 48 cookies. I vary the optional with coconut or chocolate chips or raisins. Sometimes I separate the batches and mix in chocolate chips in one and raisins in another.

1 cup margarine or 1 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
2 cups rolled oats
2 cups crispy rice cereal
1 cup coconut, shredded (optional)

4. Drop by Teaspoon fulls onto lightly greased cookie sheet.
