One of the cookies I made for Christmas this year, though it didn't look much like a typical Christmas cookie! They were fantastic and I received many compliments! Ingredients:
1 cup shortening |
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened |
2 cups sugar |
2 cups firmly packed brown sugar |
4 large eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
4 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
2 cups oats, uncooked |
2 cups corn flakes cereal |
1 cup chopped pecans |
1 cup flaked coconut |
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (2 cups) |
Directions:
1. Beat shortening and butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add sugars, beating well.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
3. Add vanilla, mixing well.
4. Combine flour, baking powder, and baking soda; gradually add oats and remaining ingredients.
5. Stirring well after each addition.
6. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart, onto ungreased baking sheets.
7. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
8. Remove cookies to wire racks to cool.
9. Cookies may be frozen in airtight containers up to 3 months.
