| This is hands down my most requested cookie from family members. The great thing about this recipe is you can substitute AS LONG as the quantities remain the same. I often put in 1/2 cup of nuts, and reduce chocolate chips to 1/2 cup. Or increase the coconut. The 1-cup cereal can be any type of cereal. I have not used fruit flavored, but I have used granola, crispy rice, corn flakes, and bran flakes. The key is to crush whatever kind of cereal you use. This cookie is crispy yet chewy. I give them in tins with circles of wax paper between layers. Ingredients: 1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 egg
1 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup oatmeal, old fashioned or instant
1 cup crushed cereal, flakes, crispy types; anything crunchy
1/2 cup coconut
1-cup chocolate chips
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
Granulated sugar
