Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter no substitutes
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 cups cornflakes
  • 2 cups oats
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven at 375 degrees.
  • On medium speed, cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add eggs, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. About 2 minutes.
  • Add flour, oats, and coconut. Mix just until incorporated.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips. Then gently, stir cold cereal in by hand, or on low speed with an electric mixer. Overmixing will smash the cornflakes.
  • Drop on greased or parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes. The cookies should be golden brown, crispy on the edges, and still a little bit jiggly in the center. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes then remove to a wire cooling rack to completely cool.

Notes

Variations: 
  • Butterscotch Chips
  • White Chocolate Chips
  • Peanut Butter Chips
  • Add raisins or dried fruit
  • Use rice cereal instead of cornflakes.
Storage: 
  • Room Temperature: Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. If the cookies start to dry out add a slice of bread to the container.
  • Freezer: Set cooled cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet. Freeze until firm. Remove to an airtight container or zip top freezer bag.
