Are you like me? Do you have a hard time memorizing recipes? Well this one, my friends, might boost your self esteem in that area. It's called 10-cup cookies for a reason. Why? Because there are 10 ingredients measured at 1 cup. All you need to do is remember what those 10 ingredients are! Okay, so maybe it's easier said than done. 🙂
Whether you can memorize this recipe or not, they are worth making...and eating...and eating...and eating. We love the abundance of various elements within the cookies, giving each bite a bit of a tasty surprise. Raisins, coconut, oatmeal, nuts... the list goes on and on, until you reach 10. 😉 Then again, you can eliminate any of these that you might not fancy, but you'll have to call them 9-cup cookies. Are you willing to do that?

Very fun! and no I'm not willing to call these 9 cup cookies ; D since you asked. They remind me of my monster cookie recipe, sorta kinda. We are all about cookies!!

What a fun recipe to make with kids! I think I might do this with my class, challenging them to find all the other ways to make one cup. I'll give them all the measuring cups EXCEPT the one cup and have them figure out what to do. Fractions are always more fun with food is involved!
Nikki says
Kelsey!! Great idea, you creative hottie, you. 😉
Gerry @ Foodness Gracious says
But I only have two measuring cups...just kidding 😉 These look great and I'd have to eat at least 4!
Nikki says
haha! Well, Gerry, I have ten. Just kidding, too. 😉
Peggy says

Glad to see the salt isn't 1 cup as well! My sister did that once and my mom made her pick out the chocolate chips so they wouldn't be wasted...These look great.
