Hippie Cookies

[Oregonian]

So there is a coffee shop right around the corner from my work that sells a very satisfying cookie with a bunch of yummy ingredients. I'm determined to master it. All the good outweights the butter and sugar, right? These are SO filling! Here's what I'm starting with...



1 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cups white sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
2T Canola oil
1 c whole wheat flour
1 c white flour
1 tsp each baking powder and soda
1 cup oatmeal
1 cup Rice Krispies
1 cup crasins
1 cup chocolate chips
3/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/3 cup wheat germ
1/3 cup chopped hazelnuts




In large bowl mix / beat butter, sugars, vanilla and eggs
Add flours, baking powder and balng soda in another bowl and blend well.
add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Give a little stir
Add all remaining ingredients making sure it is nice and bended
Roll into balls, flatten with a fork and bake 8-10 minutes.



oven 350 degrees

These sound good. I wonder what you could replace for the Canola oil?

[Amaraine]

You could use coconut oil instead of butter and canola oil - that would be better for you. Those definitely sound yummy, healthful or not!

Yes! That would be wonderful. Thank you!!
