Calories: 119kcal
Ingredients
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1¼ teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup salted sweet cream butter, softened
- ½ cup shortening
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 large egg, room temperature
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup rice Krispies
- 1 cup corn flakes
- 1½ cups sweetened coconut flakes
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¾ cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set them aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set it aside.
- Using either a stand mixer or a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat the butter and shortening for 1 to 1½ minutes until smooth.
- Add the sugars and the vanilla and continue mixing for another 1 to 1½ minutes, until fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each egg.
- Lower the mixer speed to medium-low, and add the flour ½ cup at a time. Mix just until well incorporated.
- Add the oats, Rice Krispies, corn flakes, and coconut flakes. Mix just until well combined.
- Add the chocolate chips and mix just until combined.
- Scoop the cookie dough out with a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop. Space the cookie dough 2 inches apart. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, until the edges are golden. Allow the cookies to rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Notes
- Old-fashioned oats are what you want for this recipe. If you use quick oats, they will bake too fast and make the cookies too soft.
- You could also turn these into bars. Press dough into a greased 9x13-inch pan. Bake at 350°F for 28 to 32 minutes until golden brown. Let cool and cut into bars.
- Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your cookies at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
