Christmas Baking I

A friend asked for a cookie recipe for a cookie exchange which reminded me that I still hadn't written my Christmas baking blog, and here we are at T minus 1.5 weeks until Christmas! So without further ado, commence the Christmas baking!!

One Cup Cookies

Like the title says, basically these cookies are one cup of everything. This is a very versatile base that you can add whatever elements that you want. My friend requested no chocolate chip cookies…. so please omit the chocolate chips, add some nuts or as Nanna does, use the broken up Score bar bits for a toffee taste instead! (Tip: You can find them already broken up at the Bulk Barn)

· 1 cup brown sugar
· 1 cup white sugar
· 1 cup butter, softened
· 1 cup peanut butter (Tip: you can omit the peanut butter by adding a few Tbsp of milk for moisture)
· 2 eggs
· 1 cup rolled oats
· 1 1/2 cups flour
· 1 teaspoon baking powder
· 1 teaspoon baking soda
· 1 cup coconut
· 1 cup cranraisins
· 1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350. Cream butter and sugar together. Beat in the eggs. Add peanut butter until well mixed. Add dry ingredients, mix well. Drop spoonfuls onto a no stick cookie sheet and cook until the edges are just golden (*edited*about 10-14 minutes). The middle should still look a bit gooey. Let rest for a few minutes before removing from the cookie sheet.

Really me,
The Baker
