• Add oatmeal, crushed cornflakes, Rice Crispy cereal, and coconut. (When I do this in my mixer the batter is very thick.).
• Spoon on a cookie sheet and flatten a little with a fork or spoon.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

CRISPY CHOCOLATE CHIP CEREAL COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl cream together, the butter and both sugars, until light and fluffy.
• Add the eggs, one at a time; beating well after each.
• Add the vanilla extract, beat well.
• In another bowl combine together, the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
• Gradually add flour mixture to the creamed mixture, and mix well.
• Stir in the quick-cooking oats, cornflakes, coconut, pecans, and both chocolate chips; stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined together.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Using a Pampered Chef Medium Scoop, (a 2 tablespoon scoop per each cookie) drop cookie dough onto a Pampered Chef Baking Stones, 2-inches apart.
• I place 8 onto each baking stone, then I roll each into 8 balls, and flatten each into 2-inch cookies.
• Bake cookies in 350 degree oven for 15 minutes.
• After removing baking stones from the oven, do not remove cookies from the baking stones just yet.
• Let the cookies set on baking stones for 10 minutes, before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• You should end up with 49 (3-inch) cookies.
• Note: I had baked these cookies on Pampered Chef Rectangular Stoneware, (15" x 12") but I'm sure you could bake these cookies on ungreased baking sheets. Baking time might only take 12-14 minutes, instead of 15 minutes.

CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD FOOTBALLS

Steps:

• Cream together the butter and sugar for 5 minutes. Add the cocoa and flour and mix together well until it combines. Allow to rest for 1 hour, covered in plastic.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• With a rolling pin, roll the dough to 1/4-inch thickness and with a cookie cutter shaped like a football, cut the dough into footballs. Place on parchment paper on cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Turn the sheet and bake another 5 minutes. Allow to cool.
• Mix together the mascarpone and 2 tablespoons of confectioners' sugar until well blended. Spread a little of this mixture on 1 football and top with a second football to make a sandwich. Continue spreading the mixture until all cookies are used.
• To make the royal icing, combine the 1 cup of confectioners' sugar with the egg white. Mix until the consistency is very smooth. Pour icing into a piping bag fitted with a round #1 tip. Pipe a football lace design on the cookies. Let dry.
• *RAW EGG WARNING
• Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.
