Dunking Platter Cookies
Recipe Type:
Cookies,
Christmas Cookie,
Chocolate,
Coconut,
Oatmeal,
Drop Cookies
Yields:
8 dozen cookies
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 12 min
Ingredients:
2 cups butter, melted
2 cups granulated
sugar
4
eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups old-fashioned oatmeal
2 cups raisin bran cereal
4 cups all-purpose
flour
2 teaspoons
baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 cups raisins
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts (of your choice)
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Either lightly grease or line
cookie sheets
with
parchment paper or use the
Silicone Baking Mats to prevent the
cookies from sticking.
In the large bowl of your electric mixer on medium
speed, combine the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, oatmeal, and raisin
bran cereal.
In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking
powder, and baking soda. Using medium speed of your electric mixer, slowly add
the flour mixture to the cookie batter until combined.
On low speed, mix in the raisins, coconut,
chocolate chips, and
nuts just until all ingredients are combined.
Using a 1 1/2-inch scoop, drop the cookie dough onto prepared cookie sheets.
Bake for approximately 10
to 12
minutes or until light golden brown (do not over bake). Remove from oven and let cookies set on the
cookie sheets for 1 minute to cool (they will fall apart when you try
moving them if you don't let them cool slightly). Remove from cookie
sheets and let finish cooling on
wire cooling racks.
Yields 8 dozen cookies.
