Earlier today I was teasing you a bit with a photo of some of the 200 cookies I made for our church camp students. Today I'll share the first of the three recipes. So the next time you're asked to make 200 cookies... or maybe just two dozen, you'll know just where to start.
I'm starting with the cookies in the front (and to the left) in the photo above, Cowboy Cookies.
These cookies have just about every yummy thing possible in them, chocolate chips, oats, coconut, and pecans. They may not win any beauty contests, but they are a delicious, homey treat.
Cowboy Cookies
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups chocolate chips
2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 1/4 cups sweetened flake coconut
1 1/4 cups chopped pecans
1. Preheat oven to 350*F
2. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl and set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, beat butter until smooth and creamy (about 1 minute)
4. Gradually beat in the sugars until fully combined.
5. Add the eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla.
6. Stir in flour mixture until just combined.
7. Combine chocolate chips, oats, coconut and pecans in a large bowl, then add that mixture to your dough.
8. Using a large cookie scoop, place large balls of dough on an ungreased cookie sheet.
9. Bake 9-11 minutes.
10. Transfer cookies to a rack to cool.
