Cowgirl Cookies






I developed this recipe as a result of an overwhelming craving.


I will confess that I love cookies. I can't live without them.


Anyway.... I bought some Cowboy cookies from our local grocery store [LOVED THEM!!]about a year ago and haven't seen them since.


I created this recipe in order to satisfy my craving for them. I call them Cowgirl cookies because I don't see any cowboys in the kitchen. At least, not too often around here. These are crazy cookies! Everything is in them! You'll love them too.








2 1/4 c all-purpose flour


1 1/4 c butter, softened


pinch of salt


2 t baking soda


1 c granulated sugar


1 c brown sugar


2 eggs


1 t vanilla


1 small box of white chocolate or vanilla instant pudding mix


1 c roasted, salted almonds chopped


1 c oatmeal (old fashioned rolled oats)


1 c baking raisins


1 c coconut


1 eight ounce bag of milk chocolate toffee bits by Heath


1 twelve ounce bag of semi-sweet chocolate morsels


I also added 1/3 c of golden syrup as a binding agent. Golden syrup can be found near other syrups at the grocery store. It's a British cooking additive and can also be found at larger import stores with a food section. The addition of Golden syrup is not crucial so, if you can't find it, don't worry, just carry on with the recipe.
