My mom clipped this recipe out of a local newspaper a few years ago. I have made them several times since then, especially at Christmas. They are usually the first to disappear from the cookie plate. The recipe has alot of mix-ins and will get hard to stir, I suggest you use a BIG bowl and sturdy wooden spoon. This makes a Texas-size batch!! Ingredients:
3 cups flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1 tablespoon baking soda |
1 tablespoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 cups butter, at room temp |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 eggs |
1 tablespoon vanilla |
3 cups oatmeal |
2 cups coconut |
3 cups chocolate chips |
2 cups chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. Mix first five dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
2. In a BIG bowl, mix butter until creamy, gradually mixing in sugar.
3. Add eggs one at a time and mix well.
4. Add vanilla and mix well.
5. Gradually add flour mixture, stir well.
6. Add remaining ingredients one at a time, stirring well. (this is where the stirring starts getting harder).
7. Use a medium size cookie scoop and drop rounded balls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets. Flatten slightly.
8. Bake at 350 degrees for 17-20 minutes.
9. Remove from baking sheet and cool.
10. Makes approximately six dozen cookies or you can use a large scoop and make approximately three dozen jumbo cookies.
