Cowboy Bars

These are quite good.  I made mine in a 10x12 disposable foil pan instead of a 9x13 Pyrex baking dish because I did not feel like cleaning up any more kitchen clutter.

COWBOY BARS

º 1 stick butter, softened
º ½ cup brown sugar
º ½ cup white sugar
º 1 egg
º ¾ tsp vanilla
º 3 T milk
º 1 cup flour (white or whole wheat)
º ¾ tsp baking soda
º ¼ tsp salt
º 1 cup quick oats
º ¾ cups chocolate chips
º ½ cup chopped nuts
º ½ cup coconut (optional)

Cream together the butter and the sugars. Add eggs, vanilla, and milk and beat well. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and oats. Stir in chocolate chips, nuts, and coconut. Spread in a greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.  Let cool, then cut into bars.
