A Scrumptious Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

By -

2 cup flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup butter or coconut oil
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
2 cups rolled oats (quick)
2 cups rice krispies cereal
1 cup coconut
1 (11.5 oz.) bag milk chocolate chips*
Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt;  set aside.
Beat together butter, sugars and vanilla until creamy.  Add eggs and mix thoroughly.  Add in sifted ingredients and stir.  Add remaining ingredients in the order they are listed.  Roll into balls about the size of golf balls and place on an ungreased baking sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
Makes approx. 3 dozen.
*I prefer using Ghirardelli chocolate chips over Nestles or Hershey's.
Thank you Danielle for sharing this recipe with me.

    I really enjoyed this in dough form, the cereal gives it a light crunch which I loved. Anyhow, thumbs up on these. I decreased the sugar by half and didn't miss it. And I used 1 cup wheat flour 1 cup white flour. I used coconut oil; next time I'll heat the oil up because it hardened really quickly when mixed with my cold eggs and cold chocolate chips.

    Thanks for suggesting that the coconut oil should be heated. I will try that too. I had great results when I used butter, but when I used coconut oil, the cookies were dry.

Josh got me to try some lentil soup at Corner Bakery. I was nervous, because I have not liked lentils in the past, but in the past few years I have grown to love many things I hadn't previously. And I liked it! So I immediately went on the hunt for a "copy cat" recipe, and though I have no idea if this is in fact the same, all three of us enjoyed it!  Lentil Vegetable Soup 2/3 c green lentils 1/3 c orange lentils (you can really use whatever lentils you wants) 1 lg onion, roughly chopped 2-3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 lg tomato, chopped 1-2 carrots, diced 1/2 c mushrooms 1/2 bunch spinach or 2-3 big leaves of kale, chopped fine 1/4 c corn 2-4 c vegetable/chicken broth S&P to taste Combine and wash all lentils and set aside. In a pot, heat some olive oil and saute onions, carrots, and garlic till onions are translucent. Add the mushrooms, and some salt. Saute a few minutes until they get soft, then add the tomatoes. Cover and let t...

Easy Shepherd's Pie

1 lb. ground beef 2 cups hot mashed potatoes 1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed 1 cup beef gravy PREHEAT oven to 375ºF. Brown meat in large skillet. Meanwhile, mix potatoes, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese and the garlic until well blended. DRAIN meat. Return to skillet; stir in vegetables and gravy. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish; cover with potatoes and remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese. BAKE 20 min. or until heated through. Many of you know Jon and I are picky eaters. This is one recipe we came across in the Krafts Food magazine when we were searching for meals we'd both like. I have never had Shepherd's Pie before, but I liked it. I especially like that it is pretty quick and easy. It tastes good as leftovers too. We haven't mixed the cheese into the potatoes because we didn't really feel like it or added garlic just because we didn't have any, but I'm sure it'd still taste good.
