Description

A delicious cookie recipe loaded with oats, coconut, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips!


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 sticks butter (12 tablespoons), room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups quick oats
  • 1 cup shredded, sweetened coconut
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
  2. Sift together flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon; set aside.
  3. Cream butter and both sugars together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add eggs and vanilla; beat.
  5. Add flour mixture and stir just until incorporated. Stir in oats, coconut, pecans, and chocolate chips.
  6. Drop by the spoonful onto a cookie sheet- I always use either a baking mat or a piece of parchment to line my cookie pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes just until the edges are brown. Remove from the oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
