2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3 cups rolled oats |
1 cup raisins |
1 cup coconut flakes |

2. In a large bowl cream together butter, shortening, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until fluffy.
