A reconstruction of my dad's take on these kitchen-sink cookies. Feel free to make substitutions - the basic recipe really stands up to changes nicely, so pick your favorite add-ins!
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup old fashioned oats
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup pecans
3/4 cup shredded coconut
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease baking sheets. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream butter & sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg gradually, then stir in vanilla & almond extracts and coconut. Gradually stir in the already-mixed dry ingredients. Stir in rolled oats, chocolate chips, and pecans. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the greased baking sheets.
3. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool 5 minutes before removing from baking sheets.
