Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 3 cups | All-purpose flour |
| 1 tsp | Baking powder |
| 1 tsp | Baking soda |
| 1 tsp | Ground cinnamon |
| 1 tsp | Salt |
| 1 1/2 cups | Unsalted butter, softened |
| 1 1/2 cups | Granulated sugar |
| 1 1/2 cups | Packed brown sugar |
| 3 | Large eggs |
| 1 tsp | Vanilla extract |
| 3 cups | Assorted chocolate chips (mini’s, milk chocolate chunks, and semi-sweet morsels) |
| 3 cups | Old-fashioned oats |
| 2 cups | Sweetened flaked coconut |
| 2 cups | Chopped pecans |
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
-
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
-
Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat the softened butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
-
Gradually add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the butter, beating until well combined and fluffy.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
-
Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Stir in the assorted chocolate chips, old-fashioned oats, sweetened flaked coconut, and chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
-
Using a large cookie scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Make sure to space them about 2 inches apart as they will spread while baking.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 17-19 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the centers are set.
-
Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes.
-
Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. 🍪🤠
