How to Make Grandma Mabel's Gumdrop Cookies
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, ½ cup margarine, and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Gently stir in 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, ½ cup chopped pecans, 1 cup rolled oats, and 1 cup gumdrops (sliced).
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll heaping tablespoons of dough into walnut-sized balls.
- Place cookies about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
