Santa's Favorite Cookie, Cowboy Cookies
At my house, this is always what Santa requested to be left with his milk. I suppose every house has their favorite - it would get boring for Santa if he had the same cookies at EVERY stop! These are not the prettiest cookies, but they are wonderful!
Ingredients:
½ cup butter
1 cup brown sugar (packed)
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 Tablespoon water
1 teaspoon vanilla
¾ cup flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups oats
1 ½ cups chocolate chips
1 ½ cups butterscotch chips or peanuts
Raisins to taste.
Directions:
Cream butter and sugars, add egg, water vanilla and blend in dry ingredients, including oats. Mix in chips and raisins by hand. Drop by teaspoon onto a greased and floured cookie sheet. Bake at 375* for 12 minutes. Helpful hint - we always double this recipe!
