KT Baked It: "Whatever I Can Find In My Kitchen To Make Cookies" Cookies

When I got home from work a few days ago, I needed to have cookies! Unfortunately we did not have any in the house at the ready. However, being a resourceful person, I was able to whip up some delicious cookies from what we had in the house.

What you need:
3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup flour
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/3 cup each butterscotch, chocolate and white baking chips

In a large mixing bowl, cream softened butter with white and brown sugar.

Mix the egg and vanilla with the creamed sugar and butter.

In a separate bowel, mix the flour, graham cracker crumbs, salt and baking powder.

Using an electric mixer, slowly add the flour mixture to the creamed butter and sugar.

Add in the coconut and baking chips to finish the dough.

Now its time to bake! I used a tablespoon to scoop the dough and placed each cookie about 2" apart on a greased cookie sheet.

Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes or until the sides are golden.

The cookies turned out great! This is a great basic dough to use for other additions like pieces of candy bars (snickers, peanut butter cups), M&Ms and chopped nuts too...mmmm!
