These are my favorite cookies. They are reminiscent of some my mother used to make. I like to try to remove some of the butter and add oil in a cookie recipe and this worked nicely. My husband doesn't like coconut so I made half without it and they were good.
Beat together until creamy:
½ C. soft butter
¼ C. oil (I use light olive
oil)
1 C. White Sugar
1 C. brown sugar
2T. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
Add:
1 ½ C. flour
1 1/2 C. quick oatmeal
1 ½ tsp. baking soda
1 scant tsp. salt
Stir in:
1 C. shredded coconut
2 generous C. corn flakes
1. C. toasted almonds or pecans
or walnuts
1 12 oz. pkg. Chocolate chips or less if desired
I like to make big cookies
here so Bake 350 for 12-13 minutes.
Sometimes I like a little underbaked cookie but not these because I want
the crunch. They should be nice and
brown on top.
