Ingredients
- 2 sticks (1/2 lb.) unsalted butter, salted
- 1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup old Fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup sweetened grated coconut
- 1 1/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans
- 1 1/2 cups Andes' Peppermint Crunch Baking Chips
Directions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Using an electric mixer, cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy (about 3 minutes). Beat in egg and vanilla extract. On low speed, add baking soda, salt and then flour. Mix completely. Stir in oats, coconut, pecans, and Andes’ Peppermint Crunch baking chips.
- Measure out 2 Tbsp. for large or 1 Tbsp. for small cookies. Place round balls on lightly greased cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Press lightly. Sprinkle some of the remaining chips on top of each cookie. Bake for 20 minutes for large cookies or 12-15 minutes for small cookies. Do not over bake. They get crunchy on the outside, but remain soft inside. Remove from cookie sheet and let cool.
