Breakfast Trail Mix Cookies

Dear Reader-

As a lover of sweets, I was surprised that I had not experienced the loveliness of this particular cookie before…

Dare I say it might just be my favorite cookie… Discovered late in my 33rd year of life?!?

Regardless, it is GOODe and it can be found in Gooseberry Patch’s brand new- not yet in stores- cookbook, The Harvest Table

By the way, have y’all entered the giveaway yet?!

Start by beating 3 eggs in a mixing bowl.

Add 1 Cup Brown Sugar- Packed

1 Cup of Sugar

1 1/4 Cups Peanut Butter

1 t Corn Syrup

and 1 Stick of Softened Butter

Mix ‘er up

Add 4 1/2 Cup Oats- Quick Cooking (uncooked)

2 t Baking Soda or Sodee as Grandma calls it ;)

1 t Vanilla

And, you guessed it… mix ‘er up again!

Now the fun part… Add a total of 1 Cup Nuts/Seeds and 1 Cup Dried Fruits…

I chose to add 1/3 Cup Dried Blueberries

1/3 Cup Dried Cherries

1/3 Cup Cranberries

1/3 cup Chopped Pecans

1/3 Cup Sliced Almonds

And 1/3 Cup Chopped… err smooshed Walnuts ;)

Mix it up… and scoop out onto a lined cookie sheet.

Now the recipe says by the 1/4 cupfuls… but I just used my large cookie scoop.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes and prepare yourself for pure awesomeness…

Enjoy for breakfast or as a sweet treat. Totally yummy and one is just enough :)
