Favorite Cowboy Cookies
Cowboy Cookies are loaded with a little bit of everything you could ever want in a cookie — chocolate chips, crunchy Frosted Flakes, oats, cinnamon, coconut, and our favorite…peanut butter chips!
I got this cowboy cookie recipe when I was first married, didn’t make it for a good 5-6 years into marriage and almost 16 years later am FINALLY sharing the recipe. I don’t know why I’m so slow sometimes, I guess it’s just that when something is good you sometimes miss it staring you in the face!
Apparently Laura Bush’s Cowboy cookies became a nationwide obsession years and years ago, but I have an altered recipe here. This one calls for peanut butter chips, though you could use butterscotch if you prefer.
These cookies originally were made with pecans, but we don’t add them so you will not see them in the photos. We’ve added them in the recipe though, but they are totally optional.
There’s something for everyone in these homemade oatmeal cookies and they are big, thick, and chewy. My favorite part about these cookies are all the contrasting flavors and textures. There’s crunchy and chewy, there’s sweet and salty — I highly recommend eating them warm with a tall glass of cold milk! (more…)
