This fabulous cookie is a favorite for many. It is filled with cornflakes, coconut flakes, pecans, and oats!
It is quite a treat and really easy to make too. They are great for large gatherings, potlucks, or holidays. I put these on my Christmas cookie list each year and they go into my gift treat boxes for friends and family. They also happen to be my husband’s favorite.
If you have a standing mixer, it really makes this, go quickly. If not a large bowl and hand mixer will do just fine! We start by beating the butter and sugar, add in the oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Next goes the flour mixture, and finally all the fun ingredients. Flakes, nuts, and oats.
Drop tablespoonfuls on a baking sheet, then bake for 12 minutes. It is that easy.
Let’s get started!
