My Grandmother always had these on hand whenever we would come to visit. We always gobbled them up. I never truly appreciated them tho, until I finally was given the recipe and realized the TIME that went into them. I recommend making the filling one day and the cookies the next.. just saves you that much time. I also like to just underbake a hair... I'll probably be strung and hung for sharing her recipe..:)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup light-brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups granola
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1 1/2 cups raisins
3/4 cup almonds, finely chopped

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar and white sugar until light and fluffy. Add in eggs and vanilla extract, beat until smooth. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt in a separate container and stir into the egg mixture. Stir in the granola, oats, coconut, raisins and almonds. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Let cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies.
Measure your ingredients accurately. This is important for ensuring that your cookies turn out correctly.
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to create a chewy cookie.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming tough.
Stir in the dry ingredients gradually. Do not overmix, as this will make the cookies tough.
Fold in the granola and raisins. Be careful not to overmix, as this will cause the granola to break down.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges.
Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before enjoying.
