Cowboy Cookies




A western twist on chocolate chip cookies

3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups butter
1 ½ cups sugar
1 ½ cups brown sugar
1 Tablespoon vanilla
3 eggs
3 cups chocolate chips
3 cups oats
2 cups flaked coconut
2 cups chopped pecans (optional)

Directions

In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually beat in sugars and vanilla. Add eggs and beat well. Add flour mixture and stir just until combine. Add chocolate chips, oats, coconut, and pecans. Drop dough onto greased cookie sheet using a very large cookie scoop, place 2-3 inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees for 11-12 minutes. Makes about 4 dozen large cookies.

* I made smaller cookies and probably got a couple more dozen :)
* I didn't put the pecans in mine
* I added about 1/2 cup extra flour becuase my first batch came out a bit flat

These were yummy!
