1 cup shortening
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup flaked coconut
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup butter
1 cup water
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, cream together the shortening, oats, chocolate chips, coconut, rolled oats and butter. Stir in water and cream cheese.
Drop cookies by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Press a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture on the top of each cookie, then press on the sides to seal them.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
