Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Sheets: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavors.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough.
- Add Oats and Mix-ins: Stir in the rolled oats, chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and chopped pecans until everything is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Shape and Bake: Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
