I made cookies today and I expect them to be pretty much all gone before our bedtime. And that’s because they are the best fucking cookies of all god damn time. Shit yeah. Go ahead and make them yourself, you won’t be sad.
Oatmeal Coconut Cookies
2 sticks butter (yes, a whole cup), softened
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups Quaker® Oats
1 cup coconut
1 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 350.
In large bowl, beat butter and sugars until creamy.
Add eggs and vanilla extract; beat well.
Add combined flour, baking soda and salt; mix well. Add oats and coconut; mix well. Add raisins, combine.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheets; remove to wire rack. Cool completely. Store tightly covered.
I considered adding chocolate chips or cinnamon, but I really like how they are crazy buttery and awesome.
Om nom nom.
I have this recipe for oatmeal rasin cookies which involve soaking the raisins in the vanilla/eggs before mixing it all in. It makes them plumper and shit. It’s pretty good.
Will be making your cookies this weekend since I have had a bag of coconut for a while that was going to be used for something and then forgotten about.
