Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter and both sugars until creamy. Add vanilla and beat until blended,
Add eggs one by one and beat until light and fluffy. Beat in peanut butter, then add baking soda and beat until thoroughly blended. With mixer on the lowest speed or by hand, add the flour and stir until blended. Stir in the oats, nuts, bran, coconut and chocolate.
Scoop up dough by slightly rounded tablespoons and shape into balls. If desired, you may chill the dough first or you may shape the dough into balls and chill the balls before baking.
Arrange 2 ½ inches apart on a foil lined baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
Notes
Chilling the dough will improve the shape of the cookie somewhat, but it's not necessary.
