1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup raisins
------------------------------------

Beat in egg.
In another bowl, combine oats, flour, coconut, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Ad to creamed mixture and beat well. Stir in raisins.
Drop by generous tablespoonfuls, 2 inches appart, on greased sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, just until set. Transfer to racks to cool.

Storage:
These are chewy cookies... storing them with crispy cookies will cause them to change character dramatically so be advised on that...

I believe Americans have these weird wrapped 'sticks' of butter - think they weigh 50gm but wouldn't swear to it - prepared to be wrong about that

1 Stick of Butter == 1 half cup... I'm not sure if its considered dry or wet measure I'd assume dry though?

who knows
