This recipe is based on a recipe from the Whitewater Cooks From Home cookbook....the book and the cookies are amazing! I did make one change, I used whole wheat flour instead of all purpose....totally up to you how you want to make them.
Cranberry White Chocolate Coconut Oat Cookies
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour (I used whole wheat)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup coconut
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup dried cranberries (or any other dried fruit you like)
In your mixer combine butter, brown sugar, white sugar, egg, and vanilla.
In a separate bowl combine flour, cinnamon, soda, powder, rolled oats, and coconut.
Slowly add in your dry ingredients to your butter mixture until combined. Stir in your chocolate and fruit.
Place by the spoonful onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.
Do not over bake these cookies, they are meant to be a little soft.
I'm going to make these for Uncle Bob. And a few extras for "cheat treats" - some for me and some for someone else we both love who doesn't make sweets very often any more and I will speak for both of us - we hate that.
ReplyDeleteMade these cookies today and crazy yummy buttery goodness - crispy around the edges and soft in the middle. Took a dozen to Uncle Bob. We'll see what he says. Thanks for the recipe.
