LAURA BUSH’S COWBOY COOKIES

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tablespoon baking soda

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) butter, room temperature

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

1 1/2 cups light-brown sugar, packed

3 eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

3 cups semisweet chocolate chips

3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

2 cups sweetened flake coconut

2 cups chopped pecans

Instructions




Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

In a separate very large bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer until creamy. Gradually beat in sugars and mix until thoroughly combined. Add in eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Mix in vanilla.

Add flour mixture and beat on low until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips, oats, coconut, and pecans.

Drop dough in 1/4 cup portions 3 inches apart onto an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake 15-17 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Cookie edges will be lightly browned.

Remove to a wire rack to cool.

Enjoy!
