Steps:

• Start with a 1 quart smooth Ball jar. I found these at Hobby Lobby craft store. Layer the ingredients in this order: Flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt Oats M&Ms Chocolate chips Brown sugar White sugar Chopped pecans Pack each level down really tightly. I mean it. Pack it in, or else it won't all fit. Also, I added the chopped pecans last, because if the ingredients were too much or not enough, then I could add more or less pecans to adjust. I'd rather sacrifice nuts than chocolate, you know. The ingredients should be flush to the top of the lid when you seal it up. DIRECTIONS ON TAG: Stir all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add 1 slightly beaten egg, 1/2 cup butter melted slightly in the microwave, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Use the back of a large spoon to work it all together. You may even need to use your hands to get everything incorporated. Then roll the cookie dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, place on a parchment covered baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes in a preheated 350°F oven. I got about 26 to 28 cookies out of these.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread pecans in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Toast in oven, tossing occasionally, until darkened and fragrant, 10 to 13 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop. Into a bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder.
• With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, cream butter and both sugars until pale and fluffy. Reduce speed to medium. Addeggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
• With mixer on low speed, gradually add flour mixture, beating until just incorporated. Beat in oats, chocolate, pecans, and coconut until just combined. (Dough can be covered with plastic and refrigerated up to 3 days.)
• Coat baking sheets with cooking spray; line with parchment, and spray parchment. Using a 1 1/2-inch ice-cream scoop or a tablespoon, drop dough onto prepared sheets, about 3 inches apart.
• Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges of cookies begin to brown, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks to cool 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks to cool completely. Cookies can be stored up to 3 days at room temperature in airtight containers

Steps:

• Cowgirl Cookies 2 XL Eggs (@ room temperature) 1C granulated sugar 1C dark brown sugar 2 sticks Butter Blend together with a strong mixer Add: 1T Vanilla (I like the Mexican vanilla and I have experimented with various fruit flavors and liquers) In another large bowl mix: 2C+ Bread flour 2C Regular (not the quick) oatmeal 1t salt 1/2 t baking powder 1 t baking soda Add: 6 oz. semi-sweet choclate chips. (when I want to make a real effort I buy bulk dark chocolate and chop it up) 6 oz. walnuts 6oz. Shredded coconut Add the dry mixture to the liquid above and mix together. When I make this without a mixer, I've broken most of my spoons. Make sure your mixer doesn't overheat. Scoop out with a tablespoon and form into balls the size of a large plum. I usually get 9 to 12 cookies to a regular cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 12 - 15 minutes. I use an insulated shiny cookie sheet and still have to watch for burning. It is better to make two batches than to double this one.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, cream the shortening, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Add eggs and the vanilla and beat until well blended. Stir in the flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder. Add oats, nuts, chocolate chips and coconut, mix until combined. Spoon cookie mixture onto greased foil lined cookie sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• 1. Form the dough into balls a little larger than a golf ball. Place balls on an ungreased cooking stone. Place two chocolate chips for eyes and a butterscotch chip for a nose.
• 2. Press down lightly with heel of the palm to flatten slightly. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
• 3. Remove cookies from the stone to a cooling rake. Allow to cool for a few mintues so they hold together better before serving immediately or allow to cool thoroughly and package 2 cookies wrapped back to back for travel.
• 4. The dough can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and baked as need. Allow the dough to warm up for 30 minutes before attempting to form balls.
• 5. Optional: Coconut can be ommitted and dried fruit can be used such as raisin or chopped prunes. DO NOT use dried cranberries because it interferes with the butterscotch, cinnamon and nutmeg combo that gives this cookie its distinct flavor.
