These cookies are my new favorites! Loved them. I found this old Marshall Fields recipe at Cookie Madness. After I mixed up the dough I chilled it for two hours.

1 2/3 C brown sugar, packed — 260 grams
2 t vanilla
3 eggs
2 1/4 C stoneground whole wheat flour - 290 grams
2 t cinnamon
1 1/2 t baking soda
1 t salt
12 oz butterscotch chips
1 C old fashioned rolled oats — 90 grams
1 C walnuts, chopped — 100 grams
1/3 C wheat germ
1 /3 C coconut (I used unsweetened)
Cream butter, sugar and vanilla util light. Combine and add eggs, beat well. Combine dry ingredients. Add to butter mixture. Add chips, oats, nuts, wheat germ and coconut. Drop onto greased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 for approximately 10-12 minutes.
Makes 4 dozen lovely cookies.
