Bella's Cookies



My son seems to have a hankering for a lovely little lady named Bella.  Bella is very into healthy eating so Donovan and I came up with this yummy recipe and made them for her today.

Bella's Cookies

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup quick cooking rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup chocolate chips

In an electric mixer combine the butter and sugar.  Add in the eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and baking soda.  Once fully combined add in your flour, oats, and coconut a little at a time.  Once combined, stir in the raisins and chocolate chips.

Drop by rounded teaspoons onto a lined cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 9-11 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.  Cook on a wire rack.
