I cut this recipe out of our local paper. These cookies are some work but so worth it!! Toasting the oatmeal is the secret to cookies everyone will die for. Ingredients:
2 cups walnuts (chopped) |
1 cup oats (not instant...) |
1 cup sugar (granulated) |
1 cup brown sugar (packed_) |
1 cup butter (softened) |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 2/3 cups soy flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 cups raisins |
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spread walnuts and oats on a baking sheet and cook for 2 minutes. Stir, and cook 2 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Remove from the oven and pour into a large mixing bowl. Set aside. Coat 2 large baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2. In the bowl of food processor fitted with a steel blade (or in a mixer), combine both sugars, margarine, eggs and vanilla. Process until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds. In a small bowl, combine the soy flour and salt. Spoon the soy flour mixture on top of the batter. Pulse 3 or 4 times to mix.
3. Scrape the batter into the walnut-oatmeal mixture. Add the raisins and coconut. Fold the ingredients together.
4. Drop the dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared sheets, using 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the tops are just beginning to brown but the middles still look a little soft. Cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes and then transfer to a rack to cool.
