1 1/2cupssugarI prefer raw sugar. It gives it a nice little crunch
1 1/2cupsbrown sugar
3eggs
1tbsp.vanilla extract
2 1/2cupschocolate chips-semi sweet
3cupsof oats
2cupsof coconut flakes
1 1/2cupschopped pecansoptional
Instructions
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In separate bowl, beat butter until creamy and smooth. Gradually beat in sugars for about 2 minutes. Tip: Make sure ahead of time that if you are using granulated sugar that there are not lumps. It will save time when you add it to the butter. Once the lumps get “wet” from the butter it is harder to smooth them out.
Add eggs one at a time-beating after each one. Tip-I always like to crack my eggs ahead of time in order not to get any shells in the batter. I just crack them in a small dish nearby, being careful not to break the yolk, and then just pour them individually in the batter. Beat in vanilla. Stir in flour mixture a little at a time until combined. Add chocolate chips, oats, coconut and pecans.
Spoon onto prepared baking sheets. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are slightly brown. Rotate sheet halfway through. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on baking sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy!
