1 c. butter
1 1/2 c. brown sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 tsp. vanilla
1 c. plain M & M's
2 1/2 c. quick oats
1 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. raisins or 1/4 c. coconut
3/4 c. chopped nuts

Beat together butter and sugar. Add egg and vanilla. Add combined oats, flour, soda, and salt. Mix well. Add remaining ingredients. Drop onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees. Leave cookies on cookie sheet 3 minutes before you remove them after they are done so they don't fall apart.
