These are similar to the ones my mom used to make us, so I was very happy to find it. Ingredients:
1 cup butter flavor shortening |
1 cup creamy peanut butter |
2 cups packed brown sugar |
4 egg whites |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
2 cups crisp rice cereal |
1 1/2 cups chopped nuts |
1 cup flaked coconut |
1 cup quick-cooking oats |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream shortening, peanut butter, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. 2. Beat in egg whites and vanilla. 3. Combine flour, baking soda and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. 4. Stir in cereal, nuts, coconut and oats. 5. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Flatten with a fork, forming a crisscross pattern. 6. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-8 minutes. 7. Cool on wire racks. |
