Do you have a favorite cookie recipe? One that’s so yummy that you don’t ever, ever, want to share?
Like ever, ever??
I whipped up a batch of my husband’s favorite cookies– the Cowboy Cookie! And gosh. They are delicious, so I wanted to share this recipe with you. I promise, once you have them… you will share the recipe but not your cookies. 😉
Why are they called Cowboy Cookies? I’m not sure. I think traditional Cowboy cookies have coconut, but Jordan is not a fan so I don’t include them. Otherwise, this recipe is like most other Cowboy cookie recipes– chocolate, oats, and salty pecans! If you love coconut (like me), toss in 1/2 cup at the end of mixing.
This dough is super easy to whip up and you can stash any extra dough in the fridge between batches. I’ve found that placing any cookie dough in the fridge makes less-spread and more solid cookie. That’s my preference, but if you like the crispy, thinner cookies, keep leaving out all the dough!
Doesn’t this cookie dough look good enough to eat?
I love the handy little cookie dough scooper. It’s the only way I can maintain consistency when making cookies. Otherwise, I get distracted and up with either 55 or 15 cookies… when the recipe says 35. Anyone else? The Silpat sheets are oldies but goodies. I’m not one to mess with what works… and these are working for me!
These came out perfectly! They had the best crisp to softness ratio. Whenever I need to cool cookies, I always place 2 pieces of wax paper under my supersize cooling rack. I’m all about easy clean up. 🙂
These cowboy cookies have chocolate chips, oats, and pecans. You can add coconut to make it a traditional cowboy cookie, but no matter how you customize, this is a perfect recipe!
