I would like to share this Cripsy and Chewy Cowboy Cookies with you so you can start baking for the Holiday Seasons. This makes a great Holiday Gift for your Families or Friends. All you need is a beautiful tin can to package these cookies.

If you are not planning to bake for the Holidays, I assure you that you will enjoy this Crispy Chewy Cowboy Cookies for anytime during the day/night. I love having these cookies with a cup of coffee during the day! 😋

For mid-night snack to satisify your sweet tooth, I would recommend to have these cookies with a cup of milk.

The chewiness of the cookies is from the hearty Oats in addition to the multiple textures when you take a bite: the flakiness of Coconut (we used unsweetend coconut in this recipe), the chocolatey flavor from chocolate chips, the nutty flavor from the lightly toasted pecans

Finally, line the baking sheet with Parchment Paper and scoop the cookie dough on. And put in the oven to bake at 350F. See below for bake time depending on the cookie size.

You can make 2 different sizes and the baking time varies based on the size of the cookies:

Option#1: 1/4 Cup Size (The bigger the cookie, the more chewy it can be!)

i. Firstly, Scoop out ¼ Cup size and flatten a little.
ii. Secondly, Bake for 15 – 17 min turning the tray halfway.
iii. Finally, Let sit on the tray for 5 min for residual baking and to set.

Option#2: Teaspoon Size (If you want bite size. A little less chewy in the middle but still yummy!)

i. Firstly, Scoop Teaspoon size and flatten a little.
ii. Secondly, Bake for 13 min turning the tray halfway.
iii Lastly, Let sit on the tray for 5 min for residual baking and to set.

TIPS:

• Depending on your oven, if you want the cookies not to burn, then put a baking sheet at bottom rack.
• The Bigger the Cookies (1/4 Cup Size), the more Chewy the Cookies are.
• The Smaller the Cookies (Teaspoon Size), the Cookies are less chewy in the middle but still delicious!
• Remeber to line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
