COWBOY COOKIES



Cowboy Cookies image

This recipe came to The Times in 2000 during the Bush-Gore presidential campaign when Family Circle magazine ran cookie recipes from each of the candidates' wives and asked readers to vote. Laura Bush's cowboy cookies, a classic chocolate chip cookie that's been beefed up with oats, pecans, coconut and cinnamon, beat Tipper Gore's ginger snaps by a mile. Here is an adaptation of that winning recipe.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 31m

Yield 32 medium cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups oats (regular or quick-cooking)
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (I used whole spelt flour)
1/2 cup flour (I used spelt flour)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar (or 1/8 cup splenda brown sugar blend)
1/4 cup Splenda granular
1/2 cup prepared vanilla soy pudding (or use applesauce)
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup coconut, shredded unsweetened and toasted
1 cup vegan miniature chocolate chip (semi-sweet)
1 cup pecans, chopped and toasted

Steps:

  • In a medium sized bowl combine oats, flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In a second bowl beat together water, splenda, brown sugar, soy pudding, flax seeds and vanilla using a wire whisk.
  • Fold in half of the flour mixture to moisten, then fold in second half. Just before mixture is completely combined, fold in coconut, chocolate chips and pecans. Mixture will be quite runny, but should be managable using a tbs and your fingers. If its too wet, add a few more oats or more flour.
  • For each cookie drop 1 heaping tbs of dough onto a paper-lined or greased cookie sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie and flatten slightly with moistened fingers.
  • Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F/180°C for 14-16 minutes until edges start to brown.
  • Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. When using chocolate chips, look for semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips for a rich, decadent taste.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for baking cowboy cookies is 350°F (175°C). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Don't overbake the cookies. Cowboy cookies should be baked until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Cowboy cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, sweet flavor, and combination of oats, chocolate, nuts, and coconut, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying cookie recipe, give cowboy cookies a try.
