Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 1/2 cups Flour
1 1/4 tsp Baking soda
1 tsp Salt
1 cup Butter
1 cup Sugar
1 1/2 cups Brown sugar
2 Eggs
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups Oatmeal
1 1/2 cups Sweetened flaked coconut
3 cups Raisins
1/2 cup Pecans or peanuts
1 cup Assorted Halloween candies

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Prepare cookie sheets by lining them with parchment paper or using silpats, as melted candy can be sticky.
  3. Cream together the butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time until smooth, then add vanilla extract.
  5. Incorporate baking soda and flour into the mixture.
  6. Stir in oatmeal, sweetened flaked coconut, raisins, and pecans (or peanuts) until evenly distributed.

  8. Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls, flatten slightly, and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
  9. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, keeping a close eye as melted candy may burn easily.
  10. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
