Time 2h45m

Yield about 40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 1/2 sticks (6 ounces) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup chopped mixed dried fruit, such as mango, pineapple or papaya

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and allspice in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugars with a mixer at medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well blended, then beat in the vanilla.
  • With the mixer at low speed, add the flour mixture in two batches, beating until just combined. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the oats, chocolate chips, coconut, pecans and dried fruit until incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  • Position the racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  • Drop the dough by tablespoons onto the lined baking sheets (you should fit about 12 cookies on each baking sheet).
  • Bake until the cookies are slightly browned around the edges and the centers are beginning to turn golden, 17 to 20 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies with a spatula to a wire rack to cool completely.

This was written a long time ago by my Dad, Bill York, then I tucked it away for years, found it among my cook book stuff and made it today - delicious! It deserves to be shared! These cookies don't spread like other cookies - they stay fat like little bombs - and they are the bomb! ;-)

Time 25m

Yield 48 cookies, 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup margarine or 1 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon banana extract
1/2 teaspoon rum extract
1/2 teaspoon butter flavor extract
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup diced almonds

Steps:

  • Sift or mix flour, sugar, soda and salt in large bowl.
  • In separate bowl, mix remaining ingredients.
  • Then mix both together.
  • Form dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on un-greased cookie sheets.
  • Bake in oven at 325°F or 165°C for 15-18 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a ripe banana: The riper the banana, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the flavors to develop and makes the cookies easier to handle.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: This will help the cookies to spread and get a crispy exterior.
  • Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking can make your cookies dry and crumbly. Bake just until the edges are golden brown.

Conclusion:

These tropical oatmeal cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're soft and chewy, with a sweet and tropical flavor. Whether you're looking for a quick snack or a sweet dessert, these cookies are sure to hit the spot.
