3 oz chopped walnuts - optional (nice enough without them!)

 

Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg then the flour, baking powder, bicarb and oats. Stir in coconut and chocolate chips. Take walnut sized balls of dough and place fairly well apart on greaseproof paper lined baking sheets. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180C for 15-17 minutes. Cool on racks.
