Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Scotchies
Description
This cookie recipe begins by creaming softened butter with both brown and granulated sugars to create a smooth, fluffy base. A half of an egg and vanilla extract are added next, followed by baking soda, salt, and flour to form the dough. Oats, shredded coconut, peanut butter chips, and butterscotch chips provide additional texture and flavor to the batter. The dough is scooped onto a lined baking sheet in evenly spaced portions.
Baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 to 9 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through allows for even cooking and goldenness. The cookies have a tender, chewy interior with slightly crisp edges, with the coconut and chips adding bursts of flavor complementing the peanut butter undertone. Cooling briefly on the pan before transferring to racks helps them set without becoming overly hard.
These oatmeal scotchies are suited for serving warm or at room temperature. They can be a treat with tea or coffee or packed for snacks. The recipe's use of half an egg helps regulate moisture levels for the right texture, and the combination of chips ensures layered sweetness and nutty notes.
