Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt.
• In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until well combined.
• Reduce speed to low and add the dry ingredients to the wet, beating just until combined. Fold in 1 cup each of the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, coconut flakes, pecans, and oats.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer with a spatula. Evenly sprinkle the remaining ⅓ cup of the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, coconut flakes, pecans, and oats over the batter.
• Bake until golden and cookie is baked, tenting with foil during cooking if coconut is browning too quickly, about 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack, then slice and serve.
