I signed up to make cookies for a local Coffee House Saturday night so decided to modify a cookie recipe I had and make bars instead.
The original recipe is also a modification of a chocolate chip cookie I got from a coworker in the 1970s. I wanted to add coconut.
Here's the new recipe:
Preheat oven 325º
Cream: 1 cup each vegetable oil, brown sugar, and white sugar.
Add two eggs one at a time, then 2 tsp. almond extract
In a separate bowl mix together 1 1/2 cup flour, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp baking powder. Add these dry ingredients in two parts to the above mixing well. [I use King Arthur flour.]
Add one cup oats and one cup coconut. [If you want to skip the coconut, use two cups oats for Oatmeal Almond cookies.]
Spread on greased wax paper on a cookie tray.
