Cowboy Cookies

I found this recipe at the Sister's Cafe and loved the name, and so did my little cowboys! I must admit, the cookies were to die for! I convinced my boys that they could only eat them if they were wearing their cowboy hats. It made for a fun afternoon at our house! And some much needed hot out of the oven cookies for this {almost} 9 months pregnant mom!

There is nothing cuter than a cowboy and his cookie!

Cowboy Cookies

(Adapted from the Sister's Cafe)

2 cups quick oats

2 cups flour

3/4 t baking soda

1/2 t baking powder

1/2 t salt

1/8 t cinnamon

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup packed brown sugar

2/3 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 t vanilla

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate (I did half semi-sweet and half milk chocolate)

1 cup shredded coconut

Preheat oven to 350. Mix together flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a bowl, set aside. Beat together butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and beat until fluffy. Blend in vanilla. Using a wooden spoon add the dry ingredients. Mix in the coconut and chocolate chips. Bake at 350 for about 8-10 minutes depending on how big you make them. Now go get your cowboy hats on and enjoy!
