Kitchen Sink Cookies
I absolutely love this cookie recipe. Its all the things I love in cookies, all mushed together. I modified the recipe a little over the years but I give a shout-out to Lisa Otzenberger for the original inspiration.
Kitchen Sink Cookies:
Preheat oven to 350º
Makes 5-6 dozen regular-sized cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 c. butter (2 sticks, room temp.)
- 1 c. brown sugar
- 1 c. granulated sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 eggs (room temp.)
- 3/4 c. shredded coconut (sweetened is fine)
- 1 c. chips (chocolate, peanut butter, butterscotch, baking m+m’s are all fine — even better if mixed!)
- 1/2 c. walnuts (optional)
- 1-1/2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 3-1/2 c. oatmeal (old fashioned)
- In large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add vanilla and then add eggs one at a time. Mix well.
- In separate bowl, mix flour, soda and salt together. Slowly add to creamed mixture.
- Fold in chips, (optional nuts), coconut and oatmeal.
- Drop on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
I buy bags of various baking chips and baking m+m’s and mix them all up in a big airtight container. Then whenever I bake cookies (or make pancakes) I can just scoop out a cup of chips and get a whole variety of flavors and colors! Go forth… bake happy!
