- Cover several cookie sheets with parchment (or aluminum foil).
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Combine the flour, baking soda and spices.
- In the bowl of a mixer, cream the butter, vanilla and add the sugar, beating well.
- Add the molasses (I recommend spraying the measuring cup with Pam first) and beat to mix.
- Add the eggs one at a time.
- On low speed, add the dry ingredients only until incorporated.
- Then add the oatmeal, coconut, nuts and currants, stirring until mixed.
- Using a rounded kitchen teaspoon of dough, drop each cookie onto the sheet about 2 inches apart from the next.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Cool on a wire rack and store in an air-tight container.
