Cowboy Cookies

Adapted from Allrecipes

These were some of the best cookies!  I loved the salty addition from the pretzels and the oats gave it a wholesome quality.  

Ingredients:

• 1 cup flaked coconut
• 1 cup butter
• 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar
• ½ cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 2 cups oats
• 2 cups chocolate chips
• 1 cup pretzels, broken into pieces

Directions:

• In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy.  Add eggs and vanilla; beat well.  Combine the flour, baking soda and salt.  Add to creamed mixture.  Beat well.  Stir in the oats, chocolate, chips, coconut and pretzels.
• Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets.  Bake at 350 degrees F for about 10 minutes or until browned.  Remove to wire rack to cool.
