Chunky Coco-Nutty Cookies

Full of chocolate chunks, creamy peanut butter, soft oats, and sweet coconut, this cookie is a combination of my favorite cookies in one! They could use a cool name, so if you have any suggestions, please comment and let me know! 

Chunky Coco-Nutty Cookies
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chunks 
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional, nobody in our house likes nuts in cookies but if you do, knock yourself out).
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cream butter and sugars together with electric mixer. Add eggs, peanut butter and vanilla, and continue beating. Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder together. Add flour mixture by hand to butter mixture. Then add oats, chocolate, coconut, and nuts. Mix well. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool a few minutes before you take cookies off cookie sheet. Store in air tight container. Yields: 2 dozen.
