Ingredients

  1. 2 cups (250 grams) all-purpose flour
  2. 2 cups (200 grams) old-fashioned rolled oats
  3. 1 cup (90 grams) sweetened shredded coconut
  4. 1 1/2 cups (150 grams) chopped pecans, toasted
  5. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  6. 2 sticks (16 tablespoons; 226 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  7. 1 cup packed (215 grams) dark brown sugar
  8. 1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
  9. 1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
  10. 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  11. 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  12. 2 cups unsweetened cornflakes

Instructions

  1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the flour, oats, coconut, pecans and baking soda in a medium bowl until combined. 
  3. Beat the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat on high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes more. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula to combine completely. Add the cornflakes and mix on low speed until evenly distributed. 
  4. Using a 1-ounce (2-tablespoon) scoop, arrange 12 scoops of cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each.
  5. Bake until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Let the baking sheet cool slightly, then continue baking with the remaining cookie dough.

My second batch so good

Loved these!! I didn’t have any cornflakes, but did toss in some chocolate candies and they were great. Will definitely make again.
Lisa Cherry
Big hit with family and friends. I did find it just a tad too sweet for me, but everyone else was fine with it. These cookies did not last long and some of my friends didn’t want to share them
