Peanut Butter Cowboy Cookies
"You don't have to be a cowboy or cowgirl to love the cookies. They're hearty, loaded with texture, and have so many wonderful flavors going on in every bite. The cookies are like Peanut Butter Cookies crossed with Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies, plus shredded coconut. Slightly salty peanut butter, chewy oats, sweet coconut, and chocolate is a winning combination. Throw in pecans and Cornflakes and there's texture galore. I’ve seen Cowboy Cookies called Kitchen Sink Cookies and rightfully so. Almost everything but the kitchen sink is included and it's the type of recipe that it's easy to make substitutions and swaps with the add-ins used...."
