I have one! I just made them yesterday. They freeze very well after they are baked. I've made these so many times, I memorized the recipe. The coconut is optional. I've also used either pecans or walnuts.
Cowboy Cookies
3/4 cup room temp butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cinamon
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups quick oats
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1 cup flaked coconut (optional)
Beat butter on medium speed for 30 seconds. Cream together butter and sugars until fluffy. Add baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
Add eggs and vanilla until well incorporated. Slowly add in flour, then oatmeal, scraping down the bowl when necessary. Add choc chips and nuts and coconut until just mixed.
Drop by rounded tablespoonful on a cookie sheet and bake for 10-13 minutes depending on size. (I tend to make mine a little big and get 48 cookies and they take 13 minutes in my oven.) Just look to see the outside edges get a little brown and a teeny bit golden on top. They will still be chewy in the middle, even if you freeze them.
