  2. Cream shortening and sugars in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl; gradually stir into creamed mixture until combined. Stir in oats, coconut, pecans, and gumdrops. Roll dough into walnut-size balls and place 2 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheets. Use a fork dipped in flour to gently flatten cookies.
