Pot Luck Cookies
Thought I'd share an idea for cookies:
When you buy Quaker Oats oats, there's a recipe for Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin cookies on it. I really love it, but always add my own stuff. This time I added:
For the most part they turned out pretty good. But some bites, despite all the stuff I've added, don't have any extra goodies. And I hate that. So next time I'll probably just add an extra handful of each.
When you buy Quaker Oats oats, there's a recipe for Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin cookies on it. I really love it, but always add my own stuff. This time I added:
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup mix of dried raising, golden raisins, blueberries, cherries and cranberries (the greatest thing at Trader Joes)
- 1/2 cup coconut
- it calls for 1 1/2 cups flour, but I used a 2 1/4 cup mixture of all-purpose and whole wheat flour
- I also added some ground flax seed. I guess it's good for your heart?
- And lastly, in addition to the 1 teaspoon of cinnamon called for, I added about 1/2 a teaspoon of allspice.
