Cowboy Cookies


Erin and I discovered these recently and really like them. They contain pretty much every tasty ingredient that you can think of—and they're really big!
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 ½ cups butter, margarine (or butter-flavored Crisco)
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 1 ½ cups brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 Tblsp. vanilla
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 cups chocolate chips (I use semi-sweet)
  • 3 cups oats
  • 2 cups flaked coconut
  • 2 cups chopped nuts
Preheat oven to 350°.
In bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter, sugars and vanilla until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, and beat well. Add flour mixture gradually and stir until combined. Add oats and stir. Add chocolate chips, coconut, and pecans. Drop dough by ¼ -cup measurements onto greased cookie sheet or silicone baking mat. Bake at 350° for about 12 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
