The Best Cowboy Cookies image

This recipe came from my friend's grandmother. It's a hit whenever I make them. They should be called the vanishing cookie! I always make a double batch, so the recipe is doubled.

Time 40m

Yield 72 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups brown sugar
3 cups white sugar
3 cups butter (softened)
6 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking soda
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups rice crispy rice cereal
3 cups oatmeal
3 cups coconut

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix together the Rice Crispies, oatmeal and coconut--set aside.
  • Sift together flour, soda, powder and salt--set aside.
  • In a very large bowl, cream brown sugar, white sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla. Slowly add flour mixture to creamed mixture. Add oatmeal mixture and mix together. I use my hands (scrubbed first!) for this part--it's easier.
  • Drop by spoonful on cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes depending on your oven. If you like them soft.bake less.
